which part? the wild caught, not wanting to breed, or caring about the genetic history of my snake? | |

| it doesn't really matter its your decision to do whatever u want with your snake. And I respect that. I may not understand your reasoning though. And by that I mean the genetic history part. The strongest genetics you can get and the best is always the wild coloration. Selective breeding doesn't always bring the best out of a snake. Dont get me wrong though I love the extravagant colors that can be obtained through this process just like the next person. That's just my opinion. | |

i agree that a wild snake should have better genetics than one that was bred in captivity by the average breeder, but i dont know if my snake may have some genetic disorder or something so im hoping to avoid breeding him at the moment. i may change my mind one day though | |
