Yep. Locality not only describes the group of snakes from the locality itself by location, but they are in essence, a bloodline as well mixed with the locality area, hence the genetic particular characteristics found in some localites that are different than other localities. The two are interchanged. I say that cause while you can have one bloodline that may all be related in one locality, always the chance that not EVERY snake is related, but if they are from the same locality, then they are all that locality and should be labeled as such, as common sense would dictate. Breeding the same pair of locality snakes for years, or incorporating other specimens from the same exact locality in the breedings, does not magically and genetically wipe away the locality aspect after a certain number of breedings. If they are the same breeders, and/or come from the same locality, then they will always be that locality until other localities or unknown localities or lines are bred into them. Even if babies look different, if the line or locality is untouched, they are what they are.
IMO.
