Having seen the amazing snakes he has on offer, including numerous pures, the Jags, which make up maybe at most 1-5% of his snakes, are all amazing looking specimens, and I felt privileged to be able to snare one before they all went.
And how many people have pure snakes for sale for ages on these forums?
Morph or JAG breeders ALSO love their pure lines and will ALWAYS keep them pure.
It is a personal choice what people want to breed. I am not into JAGS but that is MY choice, I don't bang on about it every waking hour of my day. I enjoy my pures and respect other peoples choices.
Why can't others do the same, it is EASY really.
The vast majority of breeders I know that breed 'crosses' are also extremely proud of their pure lines, the assertion that morph breeders dont breed pure animals is quite frankly absurd and seems to have no basis in fact. Unfortunately just more scaremongering.
Well I imagine Paul (Harris) is having a huge laugh at the nonsense in this thread. <img title="Smile" class="inlineimg" alt="" src="http://static.aussiepythons.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" border="0" smilieid="1">
There are some serious issues with the "Morph" breeding industry that do need to be pointed out.I cannot understand why there is any bickering at all. Probably because you are mostly males :lol:
There is room in this hobby for all.

anyones jags mate, that was the point.
Im over all this, be nice or dont bother.
Can females store sperm? Is it possible that a previous cross species breeding could influence in anyway the outcome of a subsequent pure mating and vice versa?
I am genuinely interested in thoughts towards the possibility of this.

Sorry buddy but you are wrong on everything that you have said involing albino olives. I have not made one cent off them for starters, as said the albino olives that i have bred were not mine but some elses that i raised and bred for them. The animals that i have are my percenage for breeding them for them. The owner of these animals made profit not me.
You then state that they have reduced vigour, slower growth, and have defects. If you have found this when you are breeding them then you are definitely doing something wrong. Bad husbandry and or wrong incubation techniques. So this has been your falt not the genetics of the animals. I have proven this once and have just proven it again this season, with out a dought.
Not that I have any interest in Olives, but what do you need to do differently?
To Cement......
the Heterozygous form breed more readily in the same environment which answers your initial silly question...... Whereas the albinos more sporadically.
this is the case in Albino Blue Tongues, Albino Tree Skinks, Albino Darwin Carpets & Albino Olives. I have tried Het x Het, Albino X Het, Albino x Wild Type & Albino x Albino pairings in all of the above...... & yes the Albinos in all of the above are in my experience are less fertile......
More data just to pacify you is pointless....
Well I imagine Paul (Harris) is having a huge laugh at the nonsense in this thread.
Unfortunatly the vast majority of "Morph" breeders don't keep their lines pure. We arnt talking about someone who breeds Albinos or Hypos, we are talking about people who cross breed Jags with Inlands, with Darwins, with Jungles, with Diamonds, even with GTPs and RSPs.
