Hey Michael, do you think it would be a little overkill to perhaps have a logo or some sort of badge for pure keepers on their website suggesting you do not condone or keep the breeding of hybrids or jags and only offer pure breeds?
I know it sounds harsh but if you started this say today, in five to 10 years time when pures are uncommon and sought again in this time frame at least the potential buyer may know what they are buying? I agree that your certificate has merit, but what about other snake breeders in the future? Is there a way around the fact that pures will be highly sought in years to come and not some clown selling some mongrel snake calling it pure to get extra dosh as what is happening in the U.S.
Will Pure snakes be taken from the wild in years to come because how uncommon they may be in captivity?
If I offend, I aplologise but I would like to see where our hobby and our future lies with our lack of foresite.
