Personally, I hate the word "morph". But, if it must be used, it should follow suit within the entire context of the hobby/industry; i.e. a genetically predictable and reproducible trait.



And for the love of (insert deity), stop with the silly name game. Ya really do not have to copy the Ball Python breeders. Simplicity at it's finest....Anerythistic Stripe; not "LIGHTENING BOLT KENYANS"! White Tiger may sound cool to some, but it makes me think of Sigfried and Roy (not Stockwell). That's the problem with "Flames" or "Flame Race". They both are describing the Dodoma Valley locality of East African Sand Boa. And even they are not "Heterozygous for Dodoma".



Distinct lines (specifically bred lines or line breedings with a purpose) should contain the originator's last name.
