There is NO PERCENTAGE! Once you create a hybrid it no longer belongs to either of the parental groups. It is it's own animal and not a % of another. If you cross a Ruthvens with an Alterna, you have a hybrid that you can name whatever you want, but no matter HOW many times you breed it back to an alterna, it will NEVER be an alterna again. It doesn't matter if its 3 generations or 5000 generations, it's STILL A HYBRID. And no matter how many times it's been "back bred" it should always be advertised as such.

Someone should talk to Jeff about creating a catagory in the classifieds just for hybrids. I personally hate seeing the "Albino Gray Banded Kingsnake" offers in the Gray Band section. They are not Albino alterna, and never will be.

Just my opinion, but who knows, I could be full of it.
