3 ways are possible; I know a falcon which is 50% Gyr, 25% saker, and 25% peregrine. The whole lmapropeltis group (kings, milks, corns) are so closely related that i can't imagine it wouldnt work, though it might be tricky to predict what the offspring will look like. Best of luck.

I'm aware, Valvaren. My university actually has a whole herd of horses, mules, donkeys, and hinnys, and studies the genetics of their reproduction lol. The mules/hinnys are only able to get pregnant when there is ALREADY a chromosomal mutation in either the parents sperm or egg, causing a matching number of chromosomes in the zygote.
Im not sure how it works when the mule/hinny is the father; i.e. im not sure how the many chromosomes the sperm has, and if it is variable or not?

To bring it back to reptiles: Im not sure how many chromosomes there are in kings vs. corns vs. milks, but i imagine there isnt a difference so it would be entirely possible for them all to cross.
