And to add to my last post, the reason why I won't do much about it is because it's peoples' freedom to keep and breed what they want. If I don't like it, I'll just say it, I'm not going to actually try to stop people from doing what they do as long as others are not harmed.

A lot of people express the same "annoyance" with ball pythons and other commonly bred species being prevalent at expos. Yet none of those people are willing to change that. So why even mention it? Especially in a thread about changing the hobby. It's odd to talk about change then say there's no reason not to. Kind of makes the discussion moot if no one is willing to change anything...
You must be fairly new to the hobby. Carpet pythons had their time in the sunlight and people were buying them like crazy to make Jaguar this and that. It actually picked back up a few years ago with the zebra's and granites and albinos.
Nothing quite like the ball python world but it sure did happen where people were buying them up for the "next big thing". So it already happened with your favourite.
