it is indeed too bad that we have lost focus on just working with animals that you would normally find in the field.

Although I too prefer "normal" (wild) looking animals, it must be said that in some states the "normals" are illegal to keep since even captive-bred animals are theoretically indistinguishable from wild-caught, and therefore in LE's eyes possibly poached. Morphs like albinos are acceptable (I'm thinking of CA herp laws here).
