Yes but just because a male for instance is used to mate with a different species that doesn't in any way affect the original animal. The male can still be used to mate with a female of the same species to keep that pure bloodline going. Indian Rock Pythons aren't uncommon in collections after all. Quote: |

Unfortunately not, I live in Brisbane now. My first snake was a Reticulated python and is still my favourite. Quote: |

The problem with the indian/burm cross is that indians can't be shipped over State lines, leaving the populations vulnerable. There is serious concerns in the U.S. about the purity of indian blood lines. The latest research suggests that most of the Indian Rock Pythons in captivity are not pure Indians and come from lines that at one time, were crossed with burms.
