I think a hobby hondo has the potential to mess with someone’s breeding project. People that are new to the hobby and don’t yet know about locality animals or that hobby hondos are actually a mix of things could be at a pet store or herp show, fall in love with the honduran milk snake, get a pair, spend the next few years raising them up with plans to breed, then when they get babies and some come out looking different than what they expected whether it be morphs/black tipping/no black tipping/ whatever, it “could” be a disappointment.

I agree with you for the most part, I’m just saying a person doesn’t have to be a milkhead dealing with expensive pure/ locale animals to have expectations with what they want to breed.
