before anyone mentions the "pit" people all have this opinion, I would have to say I have NEVER seen a hybrid worth even looking at that carried Pituophis genes. If you can't make something that not only looks different than either parent form or that comes even comes even close to the beauty of the snakes pure form, why bother ? I see a lot of hybrids I like that are AWESOME in appearance. I keep a pretty good amount of different snakes. ( Pythons, Boas, and colubrids ). I keep both Northern Pines, Black Pines, and Cape Gopher snakes and would never even consider mixing their genres together. You would not get even close to either's beauty in the pure form. This just my opinion, I think your results would be less than desirable to even yourself, in other words, they will look like crap. Although I do think you should do what you want, but also believe at the same time you should weigh other people's opinion.
