New Charpondro's

I just hatched out these little guys. They are a cross between a female Sorong green tree python and a male high red IJ Carpet. They are really stunning in real life. I am going to post select a few for sale. They are all eating at 1.5 week old. Enjoy the pic's

It *is* a python.

sure it "is" a python but it's not pure. Hybrids suck and I'm against it!

Why do Hybrids suck? Do you have any experience with them. Can you illustrate any negative experiences with a hybrid pythons or reptiles in your life? Have you ever contributed to the captive future of any reptile species or hybrid reptile? You do understand that they are pets right. Pure bred or Hybrid they are captives. How do Hybrid suck whether in captivity in Tucson or South Africa. Just wondering. I need more input. The funny part is whether natural oocuring or in captivity, hybridization is evolution.
Later,
Chris

sorry to set you off. It's a personal opinion. Honestly they are very neat looking snakes and pretty as well. I'd just rather have a 100% pure bred animal. I don't like wild hybrids either. Some hybrids are neat looking such as the ones you posted, I just wouldn't keep them.

What's your purpose for posting your opinion? To try to influence ppl to think your way? Just because you don't like them doesn't mean they can't exist and ppl can't produce them and show us their success. Chris has successfully produced a very rare and one of a kind animal. And negativity only brings more negativity. Now to make your 'Hybrids suck' comment more PC you should've said 'Hybrids suck mice' (and they swallow too). That would have been a true statement. And this is not the 'pure' python forum. But it is a pure python, it's not a pure carpet or green tree python, but it's a pure python.

What's your purpose for posting your opinion? *America is Free isn't it?* To try to influence ppl to think your way? *no, these aren't natural and It's just screwing with things I don't think should be screwed with* Just because you don't like them doesn't mean they can't exist and ppl can't produce them and show us their success. *that's very true, to each their own* Chris has successfully produced a very rare and one of a kind animal. And negativity only brings more negativity. Now to make your 'Hybrids suck' comment more PC you should've said 'Hybrids suck mice' (and they swallow too). *LOL* That would have been a true statement. And this is not the 'pure' python forum. *although they do have a hybrid form which would make more sence* But it is a pure python, it's not a pure carpet or green tree python, but it's a pure python. *these aren't as rare as you think, many have been producing them for a few years. No it's not commonly done but not everyone wants to work on producing these hybrids. Congrats on the success. Like I said before I do like the look but I'll never own one. I probably shouldn't have worded that the way I did as I come off like a troll. Anyways sorry

*America is Free isn't it?*
Didn't say he shouldn't, I asked him why.

*although they do have a hybrid form which would make more sence*
Doesn't mean he posted in an inappropriate place.

*these aren't as rare as you think, many have been producing them for a few years. No it's not commonly done but not everyone wants to work on producing these hybrids.*
Jungle GTP's have been produced a few times. Still not enough times to consider them anywhere near 'common'. How many other snakes are genetically equal? None, which makes them 'rare'. However Chris crossed a GTP with an IJ. How many times have you heard of this happening? Which makes them more rare than the JunGTP's. Ya notice how hybrids are worth more than both the species combined?

Run over to www.Chondroweb.com there you will find people with Adult yes I did say adult chondro X IJ Crosses. It has been done with both. Anyways Regardless they are beautiful animals. I guess he should just like them for what they are or dislike them for what they aren't.

viridisnakes Jul 22, 2004 09:51 AM

Was done only one other time in russia and produced one single animal. It also was male Chondro and female IJ. This was done via opposite. His looked much different than mine.

Thanks
Chris

Check chondroweb and you will be proven wrong.

Being a chondroweb regular, I am only aware of one other IJ x Chondro cross, the one Chris mentioned. I guess that would mean there is only one IJ x Chondro adult, not multiple ones. I've been a member of Chondroweb since almost the beginning, so I'm wondering where Chris is proven wrong on that forum. Show the evidence. This is only the fourth or fifth clutch of carpets crossed with chondros I'm aware of.

Way to go Chris, I love them.

It was a long time ago I'd have to look throw a ton of pages. I believe it was a womans snake. I'm positive that the post is there I would just have to find it.

Either way beautiful animals and for sure a rariety!

Can you show us (or me) the variations in the litter? This one already looks different than the Jungle Carpondros. Can't wait to see the IJ influence as it gets older. And can you post a pic of the IJ parent too? Looking sweet,
Josh
