Hybrids?
What are everyone's feelings on hybrids? I posted a pic of my snow corn x albino nelson milk on the vertebrates section of Arachnoboards, and just about everyone there abhors hybrids of any kind. What are your thoughts?
By the way, here's a pic of my gorgeous girl Orchid

Re: Hybrids?
I love hybrids, mostly because genetics fascinate me. This isn't just with snakes though, I think things such as a mule, zorse, wolffin, liger ect are amazing. Pretty snake though

Re: Hybrids?
Whale and dolphin I think my text book spelled it with two F's though. It has been a while since I took a zoo class.
Also a zorse is zebra stallion and a horse mare
a hebra is the other way around
Hybrids are named based on which was the sire and which species was the dam. Although I think you can breed a zorse to another zorse. I could be wrong since most hybrids are not able to breed... I love speciation and cladagrams and all that jazz.

Re: Hybrids?
Nice looking snake. I'm more knowledgeable about fish than I am reptiles and to be honest I'm pretty much against them with fish but not for the animals themselves, but rather that they're often mis-represented as pure whatever when in fact they're hybrids. Most 'purists' in the fish hobby (cichlids at least) consider fish spawning of the same species but different localities to be hybrids as well.
For myself I have the same opinion for fish or reptiles: so long as it's not mis-represented as pure then I don't have a problem with hybrids. In fact a lot of them are pretty neat, yours for example.

I agree with this with only one exception. I would love someday to have a wolf dog.

Re: Hybrids?
Yes that does count as a wolf dog but Im thinking something along the lines of a wolf/husky or wolf/malamute. Our neighbor down the street has one and hes beautiful. The cool thing is theyre totally legal here.
