"Normals are cool if you are new to them. But if you have been keeping them for a number of decades it gets boring. That is why pople move onto morphs and hybrids"





HUHHH???......Newbies haven't been "keeping them for a number of decades" You are obviously speaking for yourself, and that you are bored with them. Unless of course it is something normal worth big bucks, in which case you would leave it alone until they became much more common in the hobby. And THEN you would cross/hybridize them to appeal to a totally different market to change venue for more sales.



Many don't "move on" to morphs and hybrids either. How can you "move on" to anything you have never had before, especially for "decades"?. I don't believe that for one second.



Most(but certainly not all)of these people are impulse buyers that are supplied with these crossed snakes from people that produce them to appeal to the masses that don't know any better, or care what they produce and distribute in the least.



I don't care about appealing to any type of specific snake market, I keep what I do, and breed what I do because I like them, not because I have to have a specific niche for sales. The sales of these snakes usually comes automatically without any any real emphasis on advertising them whatsoever. They basically sell themselves every single year actually. Most are spoken for long before the adults ever even breed, often from the year before.



I guess most of those folks just ejoy being "bored"..HAHAA!!



I don't seem to recall hybrid lovers beating mty door down for my animals though......weird..LOL!
