That is what is wrong with some hybrid breeders...a total lack of concern for what happens on down the line.



That is also why so many of us are worried about the production hybrids...you never know into whose hands they will eventually fall, and they may just be as irresponsible in their attitudes as has been reflected above.



You say that some of us are just too worried about corn snake purity? Well, that's fine; you are certainly entitled to your own opinions. However, can you not see that a person breeding pure corns does not in any way hinder your desire to create hybrids, but that your hybrids sold by others as pure corns may very well hinder my ability to breed pure corns down the road?



Should your desire to breed what you want supercede my breeding abilities with my own animals? That is why I believe that hybrid breeders have an added responsibility level that they must accept. It would be different if hybrid reptiles were sterile, as in mammals, but they are not. The fact that so many hybrid breeders don't seem to care about the results of their efforts...well, that's the problem.



In fact, I have publically stated before that the ONLY problem I have with hybrids is the attitude of some of those who breed them. You just illustrated why that is perfectly. Thanks...
