i cant beleive im about to post in another one of these threads but hell, here goes....

some people like there animals to be of pure locality, and some are just happy to know they have a pure subspecies of carpet, i am one of these keepers. then you have the hybrids.... being somebody that doesnt think its good i still understand that some people dont mind hybrids and some actively and intentionally keep, breed and im sure promote these animal, thats all good and well, i just dont support this. i think one of the bigest issues is that people dont support hybridisation and they instantly go on the attack when they hear the word. the second big issue is those dodgy dealers that do actively keep these animals and sell them as things they arent, this results in alot of distrust in the industry, even when buying off good dealers people must show caution some times.

my argument is, is that the pure animal imo look far better. i know people see some nicer hybrids on OS sites but the pictures you are generally seeing are the one good example of hundres of animal being kept, so generally they come out very average and drab. each to there own, but this argument will go on forever because you will always have multiple opinions on the issue.
