Hybridization?

retnaburner Aug 17, 2008 06:35 AM

How many of you have tried to hybridize an alterna, and with what? How many of you have had success? Just curious because I saw one of the coolest looking snakes a few days ago and it is a Knoblochi x Alterna. Will post pic later.

Here is the Pic of the hybrid snake. If you look at the head of the snake the pattern looks like the mask from Scary Movie.

what is weird is that if I had had to guess I would have said thayeri x greeri, not knob x alterna.

Why would anyone want pair up two amazing species just to produce a clutch of mutts?

Oh well, at least it keeps the deli cup herpers out of the field.

If you really wanted to amp things up on the forum you could have just posted a picture of a flashlight... Nothing gets these guys going like a nice new 5 million candle watt flashlight!

Right BOB!
