Korbin how do you feel about dwarf and super dwarf locales in the pet trade?

I think your point is completely pointless. We have way too many idiots making hybrids and integrates to even try and argue that point. There is no way you could prove it was a pure dwarf.

Korbin I think you've come to expect arguments. I wasn't trying to make a point, but just asking what your opinion is on these locales in the pet trade. I can understand someone opposing mainland retics; retics have become my favorite snakes, but I have no plans on getting a full sized monster. I've got pure jampea, and pure kalatoas. I understand what you mean about the mixing of the smaller locales I'm not a fan. Although I disagree with the no way to prove pure comment.

Korbin are you against mixing of any locale of any species or just insular locales?

For example do you see the mixing of tully and palmerston jungle carpet pythons just as bad as mixing crawl cay and caulker cay boas?(mainland locales vs island locales). Where do you draw the line?

I breed for color morphs so honestly mixing localities is a part of it. I am not down with peoplw breeding bci with bcc at all nor am I okay with people breeding a Peruvian with a Bolivian just for the giggles.

Usually when people breed for color morphs they sell the non visual babies as jets which means you know they are a mutt.

I don't know much about south american boa constrictors so I have to ask(if you know), do bolivians and peruvians naturally integrade in the wild?(since the two countries are next to eachother). Or are the two localities of boa isolated from each other by a barrier?

I personally don't see anything wrong with mixing naturally occuring integrades such as coastal and jungle carpet pythons, colombian bci and colombian bcc..etc
