It would seem you are right.
I was just penalized like a little boy for using the term "man-made" to describe most of the obscure morphs that exist in the snake hobby.
Well.. *sighs* I fail to believe that "lavender albino retics", for example, are all over the place in the jungles of Southeast Asia. Granted some genetic anomalies exist in nature, of course they do. However, most "morphs" we see today,
most (not all) especially in the ball python arena were created by selective breeding, not by catching them in that state in the wild.
Selective breeding is done by
humans. Human intervention is done by
men. If something is done by
men, it is
man-made. Perhaps the term "man-made" is a little misleading. (However it could be used as a very simple, generic explanation - a term I might use to explain a bright yellow, black and orange ball python, for example, to an 8 year old kid that is under the impression that these snakes occur in
that colour in the wild after he saw one at a show, or at the previous zoo I was head keeper of).
It is my opinion (and get this:
opinion is what this thread is all about lol) that wild morphs are as "natural" as it gets. And therefore I like them best. Period. My opinion. No need to be offended, kiddies
But of course, it would seem that there are always those that wish to argue. Nitpick the little things and try to create an argument out of them.
It's hard to take the people on this forum too seriously though
Can't believe I just wasted 10 minutes of my life explaining myself to somebody I don't even know, or doesn't know me... lol...
Okay, back to more important things... bye for now
