Ok, new to the forum but not to all things herp...LOL.

Brief history about me though. I got out of the reptile breeding hobby almost 10 years ago. However when I was keeping and breeding animals I also worked for a very large breeding/collection operation as well as several pet stores as the reptile manager. Just laying some groundwork here so I don't come off as a total newbie etc.

Being out of the hobby for so long and now recently wanting to get started again, I noticed how crazy the market has gotten. Mainly with the many color morphs going on. Especially in the Boa and Ball market.

My hear has always been with various Boa species though. Thus the reason I wanted to post this here.

What I'm wanting to know is..........how many hobbiest/breeders are only interested in genectically "pure" color variations? It seems everyone is only into the ghosts, snows, hypos, sunglows, etc, etc, etc. What about people who still enjoy the "natural" color phase of individual species? Are there any of those guys left around?
