Hey Nick

I was just talking to Doug at boa basement about the same thing today. I think it is a great idea but I would not know where they would begin to even start doing something like this. With most of everything being captive bred for the last i don't know how many years, it would be hard to trace the lineage of most snakes all the way back to the wild caught parents. I do not believe in the mixing of different species and i would not intentionally do so myself but who is to say what is pure and what is not at this point unless it is wild caught. On another note with the world changing as it is, certain species that may not have crossed in the wild in the past may have access to each other now because of the deterioration of boundaries that kept them apart. We might not know exactly what we are getting from the wild!
