HYBRID (look out)

Found this on another site (american), thought some of you may find it interesting. It is 75% GTP and 25% West Papuan Carpet.

RE: HYBRID (look out)

That's 'Yassers' Carpondro, not as good looking as it was when it was younger, but will be interesting to see what it looks like after full colour change.
Nice snake though!

RE: HYBRID (look out)

I find myself strangely drawn to that snake. I wonder what it will eventually look like ?

RE: HYBRID (look out)

pretty, pitty we can't make hybrids here, don't terribly understand why. hybrids are probably being made in the wild anyways.

RE: HYBRID (look out)

Andrew.............don't do it..............oh well too late you've said it now :-)

I can't understand it either, it's not like our snakes are ever to be used to restock depleted wild collections or anything like that and has been said many times not many of us know the true history of our animals past maybe the parents.

RE: HYBRID (look out)

and the great thing is the mugs that buy them cant breed them on and spoil your prices because they are most likely sterile

I don't get it, why is it a 'poor thing' ? Being sterile isn't a death sentence.

Because the poor thing doesn't know what it is, doesn't wether to be a GTP or a carpet, would be confusing instincts for it.

I would hazzard a guess and say it probably couldn't care less what it is, it's a snake and eats mice, I reckon that is the limit of the care factor :-)
