I know i should probably already know the answer to this. But i don't. Im still learning everyday so forgive me if this is a dumb question. Can you breed BCC to BCI?

1.1 Columbian red tails (Zeus, Athena)
1.1 Corn snakes (Appolo, Boreas)
0.1 King snake tri striped cal morph (Helios)

you can, but many people frown upon it.

Remember the only dumb question is the one you never asked....There is only dumb replies...lol...

The BCC...BCI question actually comes up alot...I think alot of people do frown on breeding the 2 but in order to bring out the beauty of the BCC ( Suriname, Guyanan...etc...) within the man created morphs it is neccessary. BCC for the most part are the best looking common boas...and those that breed locale specific boas will always have people knocking down their door to get them.

Hey Andy, I'd have to disagree with you, Morphs are not "man made" rather a naturally occuring genetic evolution.

Man is refining, combining and propagating them well beyond what nature would have allowed. But we did not create the basic building blocks that are being used to create all the designer morphs.

BTW, I do love the designer morphs and hope to produce some myself.

Hey Dave, really that is what I was trying to say....The genetic pattern exhists with the ability to produce...we just cause and accelerate.. Thanks Andy
