I read an article years ago and I wish I could find it today... The article basically said that "naturally occuring" hybrids were the only "safe" and "undisturbing" hybrids mother nature would allow. I couldn't agree more. The idea of crossing a Ball Python to a Carpet or Retic is just horrifying. Being that Balls are African and Carpets are Australian and Retics are Indonesian, it's just Mother Natures way of saying "WE DON"T BELONG TOGETHER". The Borneo Bateater (burmese x retic) is a naturally occuring hybrid. The "superball" (Ball x Blood) is not. The Ball x Angolan is a naturally occuring hybrid as well. I personally hope that all of the breeders out there that are trying "unnatural" hybrids fail miserably with disasterous consequences. Let's just cross a Great Dane with a Chihuahua?! Wouldn't that be awesome?! Or how about a Human with a Baboon?! Maybe I'm a purist, maybe I'm just and axxhole. The more hybrids we create the harder it will become to maintain the integrity of Mother Nature and the industry. My opinion is that more people should breed snakes because they love them and want to educate more people about them, not to just get rich from them. This is just my opinion and thanks for letting me rant,
Chip
