Pretty much. Occasionally crosses of two genera are possible, although I can't say I'm aware of any outside of
Lampropeltis/Pitophis/Patherophis crosses.

What is concidered a subspeices?
For example would a black gerbil be a different subspieces from a brown gerbil?
I'm asking because I found a florida eastern... that is an eastern garter snake from florida ... to be a mate to my florida eastern... florida blue.
But he's not a florida blue. They are both eastern... they are both from florida... they are both the same speices but he is normal colored and she is the "florida blue" color.
To me that 's the same as two different colored gerbils (when I was breeding gerbils) and would not be hybrid. So I came here to basicalty ask the same question the orginal poster asked.
