That's a good thing. I've caught a little bit of flack for this project but nothing too bad.

I do mostly pure breeding with corns, milks, and kings. I play a lot with the genetic morphs also.

I've never had a problem with hybrids though. The possibilities have always intrigued me and I have wanted to explore a bit. I purchased this corn X yellow rat because it was something DIFFERENT. Back then, I hadn't even seriously considered breeding snakes, I was just keeping them for my own enjoyment.

Well, the next evelutionary step happened and I started breeding. Now I'm doing it seriously and loving it. Every year has been a success. Hell, I'm looking at possibly over 200 hatchlings this year and I can't wait!!

I'm really excited about what this project might yield. I look at my collection and I very well might try some different crosses in the future. What got me started on doing some hybrids is just the fact that this snake is just too damn pretty not to breed to something.

You guys have been great and I do appreciate the warm welcome I've recieved over here.
