Ok, then sterilization is not a condition about breeding two snakes.

Personally I don't think there is a logical argument for or against breeding hybrids. I mean it's ok if it's all we have to do (leopard geckos) but not ok if we do have the local information. If there is no desire or benefit to breeding hybrids/integrades then there should be no desire or benefit to breeding such animals as leopard geckos/corn snakes/bearded dragons yet these 3 are probably the most bred reptiles in captivity. Leopard geckos and corn snakes are probably the most experimented with breeding groups there are. A large percentage of the herp community finds enjoyment and a sense of accomplishment trying to discover the next "new thing".
