{b]If one of those dramatic hybrids you showed were instead a newly discovered species, I'd be all over it.{/b]

I agee with you. So WOULD I! i like bonafide locality specific and espcuially some new as well. i think the her world has sufferred from this since teh advent of the BP morphs. I too wish it was like in the good ol days.

But why can't we like both? or the diviosions which seprate us like generic snakes, sub species crosses, unkown locality snakes, true hybrids, ect ect. All this worry about something effecting purity is really about the pocketbook for an individual. They seem to think if some kid who has never bred 2 snakes together roduces some new recessive trait they should be richly rewarded . But because of fake hybrds out there he will not. So case in pont is does this young teenager really deserve to be rewarded for his breeding efforst? Really what efforst has this person done? or really most anybody who pops out a new morph and then all of a sudden they have a name in herppetoculture. hmm , they never did a thing in breeding efforst or selective breeding or even trying to keep bonafied locality specimens by going out and finding them themselves. So you see it is all a big joke and so are this hipsters with big mouths on here. Dmaong as a kid is still trying to find his first cornsnake and is jealous you found and eastern king in his backyear mentality. He and others are just immature and now they own a computer.LOL!



But truth is people don't care about new stuff . That is why herptecuture moved away from people trying to work with newer or harder to acquire spp and instead is about codom mrphs and making $$$.

beleive me we are on the same page as that!

We can do what we love and we should respect and stop the infighting amonst ourselves and just leave others the hell alone.

i also hate to bring up using one of you parlallel arguements because someone who has a problem with reading will turn it against me. basically the cars, art, polictics ect does not jive well when it comes to herpetocultre. it is just not teh same thing as baseball cards either and the parrallels are a weak arguement. So i prefer to listen to some human reason of an old FR which is better than the foul lipped disrespectful youth on this forum. (not you Terry)
