I know very little about hybrids and there doesn't seem to be a hell of a lot of info out there about them. I'm wondering if jungles are able to reproduce and if so could you potentially introduce a third set of genes creating for example a Corn X King X pituophis? I know someone's going to ask why anyone would want to sin against nature in this way but it's more or less a hypothetical question.

Yes Jungle Corn/kings can reproduce. They can also be bred to various other species successfully as well. Not all hybrids can successfully reproduce, but most Colubrids seem to cross breed/reproduce fairly successfully. All my Jungle corns so far have been from Jungle X Jungle breedings which is your proof for hybrids reproducing successfully. Mark
I know there've been crosses involving more than one species but not more than one genus. Don't see whyit wouldn't be possible though. Not that I'd recommend it. :)

That's cool, I've been considering breeding jungles next season maybe. It seems there is no limit to the number of possible colubrid morphs and hybrids.
