Bateater - Step 1

These 2 have been together for 2 weeks, and last night I caught them in the act. Male is a 10 foot Sulewasi retic, and female is a 10 foot Burmese. From what I have read, Borneo Bateaters are very difficult to achieve, but at least step 1 has begun. Ron.

Not to sound stupid but aren't they different species?

Is this the same as breeding a bci to a bcc?

I totally agree, and personally do not like hybrids but this goes on all the time and its going to happen either way. If he wants to do it, then let him..know what I mean?

I think that it is exciting. I would like to attempt to produce bateaters someday. IMO, bateaters are some of the most breathtaking snakes around.

Can never be happy with the species, always want something more. One glance at the animal, nice chunk of money. Then its onto another species to dirty up. Disgusting

Of course he will, hes making money. If I could stop it, trust me, I would.

If it was not for hybridizing and Inbreeding we would not have all of these different breeds of dogs and cats that people love so much.

Why do so many people on here think everyone should share their views and opinions. If you dont like them, dont buy them!!

Even if he is not doing it for money, which is usually why anyone would produce a damned hybrid. He would still have extras to need to sell. But back to this not for money, if you want to see one look online for photographs, plenty out there..Other then that why would there be a need for breeding, uh, mone

Maybe we can just all enjoy the photo and his efforts instead of bringing in the hybrid debate.

There is a thread on ssnakess.com that you all can include your thoughts on.

Anaconda.....nice photo....I am sure you are well aware the herp community sometimes has strong feelings towards hybrids, and when your babies are born you will label them properly and make sure they are never sold off as pure animals to the best of your ability. Good luck.

Good luck on the bateatres. They are amazing looking snakes. I love how people take this as a crime against them and that you hybridizing YOUR snakes is wrong. What ever happened to choice to do as one pleases. Best of luck Anaconda and keep us updated.
