Erin Buhaly has one for sale currently on iHerp. Not sure about how many others currently breed them on a good scale though. Ben Siegal had some for awhile I think?

I am torn on this issue. Part of me cannot deny the beauty and intrigue of these snakes, and part of me is frustrated that an already muddied up pool of genes and locales is just getting more confused.

I'm with ya there man. I love my designer, Diamond x jungle carpet hybrids, but it hurts to know that by propagating them, animals that might falsely be represented can be put into the gene pool. To help lessen, the confusion, I've started to put lineage charts for all of my animals, pure or not, to go as far back in their lineage as possible. It isn't a fool proof plan, but it helps to know that when I will sell an animal, it's entire pedigree is placed before it.
