Your next snake

[Josh]

its funny the only reason he wont let my is he doesnt like snakes. I pay for them and the food and all he just doesnt like them.

i have it to.

I think I remember that to Stefan....just can't remember from where....

I found it:

I will try to explain.
The biggest part of the problem is that the young will look like one of the parents. For example, like t. s. parietalis. But eventhough they look like them, they also have the genes of radix.
So you cannot tell them apart from "pure" T.s. parietalis.
And maybe it is better to keep species and/or subspecies as pure as possible.

I do not mean that these hybrids are no good snakes or so. Nothing wrong with them. But it is impossible to keep track of them.

[Josh]

Justr for the record i had not plan on breeding the two.

[enigma200316]

yes....that'd be it.........

[Josh]

well after i get the radix my dad said if i clean the house more often i can get red spots wich im very excited about.

[Josh]

So that is in the near future.

[Stefan-A]

I may be wrong, but I haven't heard that they are recognised (by science) as distinct sub-species.

I understood that there was a bit of debating going on at that time, but that they eventually were recognized, or rather kept, as two distinct subspecies.

well gotta go guys gotta get back to making that viv...I'm almost done..

[Josh]

i think if pallidulus and sitalis sirtalis is a diff. sub species. That they should be. THere are even more distinct differnces.

Good luck.
