    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Would you ever have guessed...

That Aspidites would be compatible with Morelia?

Here are 2 Woma X IJ Carpet crosses:

WOW those are amazing. When you start selling them how much are you gonna sell them for. Well whenever you start selling them.

Don't even know that we're going to at this point...they're just so beautiful that it would be easy to keep every single one!!!
 
yeah it is...I think hybrids are cool as long their breeding doesn't take over...and I don't think it will
really pretty and congrats :)
 
This would be the first time I would ever volunteer for a Coma! (pun intended!) They are adorable.

I see nothing wrong with these crosses as they are labeled as just what they are. There should be no mistaking these for pure anything. It's when the waters get too muddy that I have a problem with mis-representing animals either intentionally or un-intentionally.

I do not see that happening here and would trust N.E.R.D.'s word for any animal I would purchase.
 
To each his own. Pretty fascinating to find out that the cross would even work to start with.
Kara, i seem to remember , well never mind but man oh man things REALY do change while others never will

jeebus H more damn hybrids... why cant people just leave them alone... they are beautiful as is....

Glad to know I'm not the only one. Corn/kings are one thing, but something with less bloodlines, that will never be imported again.
 
I think they're gorgeous, and fascinating. I don't think they should eclipse pure womas or carpets, of course, but in terms of what we just learned from that cross, it can't be beat. Now, of course, the next step is to find out if these hybrid offspring are fertile. :)

So long as their bloodline is kept track of carefully, hybrids aren't terrifically different from any of the color morphs--you wouldn't want those loose in the wild, either.
If this was being done in an area where womas or carpets were native, there might be more cause for concern...as it is, those are some BEAUTIFUL snakes, I can't want to see what they'll look like as adults!

What was learned from the cross other than that it could be done?

Which debunked a boatload of theories about genetics that most likely have a room full of taxonomists somewhere pulling all their hair out about now.

Even if this information isn't followed up by the "professionals" in taxonomy, this simple fact opens new doors and changes thinking for those of us persuing this hobby.

Think about it.
