im no genetics wizz and wont pretend to be , its just that when you said "There need to be at least some external sources for keeping new genetic profiles coming into the captive bred lines, or there will be a repetition of the horror of kennel club breeding specifications for reptiles as well"I think you'll find that genetics works in fundamentally the same way across most species.
it made me think that you where referring to inbreeding of reptile and that we need to keep out sourcing the genetics to stop bad side effects like we have seen in dogs in the past
this isnt anywhere near as big a problem in reptiles as it is dogs ( seems to be the general agreement anyway) , thats all i was saying
