That's for sale???
And that is what you should do then. I do not selectively breed. When I breed, the animals are unrelated and in no way being inbred. I'd have to say in the wild though, many snakes most likely do inbreed as their territories are just not that big. Morphs..sure, we make them. I never have....I've bred locality animals for the most part although I've owned other morphs...again, breeding two unrelated animals to see if the morph is true.As far as morphs not making it to adulthood, yes, that also is true. However they do. There are many albinos out there that survived to be captured and bred. Amel corns are a prime example. I've also seen albino canebrakes that were wildcaught and adults as well as hypo cottonmouths and other such anomalies. If you think you are breeding weak animals and that cutting eggs weakens them further, then in my mind you are doing a worse diservice to the species....sort of like saying....the car has no engine but lets try to sell it anyway. I try to breed the best animals I can. I wait until females are well over 5 years old before breeding, my animals are not fed weekly and they are kept as naturally as possible. I never breed a female more than every 2 years and I would never breed a snake that is less than good. I also try to find out bloodlines on the snakes I purchase if possible (some are LTC's) and only get animals that have no inbred lines on either side. This can be difficult especially when getting into the high blue lines in chondros. I do my very best to provide the best possible situation for my animals in captivity. I will not compromise the babies by "helping". That's just how I feel. You do what you want, I will do what I want.....if you buy a baby from me, you can be assured that it was born on it's own, is strong and was never force fed......
