Posted - 20/06/2012 : 15:42:46 So went to the local reptile shop today to just see a friend and possibly have a look at a little albino they had going cheap, well we got there and the lil girl had already been sold so said 'friend' shows me a 7 month old ultramel anery with various hets I can't remember now but more to the point what do I do... I fall in love with the fiesty little fellow and at nearly double what I was even thinking of spending, love did not come cheap!

Posted - 21/06/2012 : 00:28:37 Thanks kdlang had done a little research and and you just cleared it up and thanks I will make sure if I do breed I tell all potential buyers and obv I am biased but isn't he just a lil stunner ;) |

Posted - 21/06/2012 : 00:08:47 Wow he is gorgeous. I'm not surprised that you couldn't resist.
A hybrid is one kind of snake crossed wth another. Ultra's are corns crossed with rat snakes. In order to try to preserve true corn lines it is important to let people know that the babies are hybrids. That way they can make an informed decision about what they want. Personally I think ultras are gorgeous. |

Posted - 20/06/2012 : 19:42:35 Some people don't mind hybrids others don't like them. If you do decide to breed just make sure you tell people about the babies being hybrid so if they decide to breed then they know as well. Some people are trying to keep the corn bloodlines pure but in nature they will have/do interbreed and somebody could have caught a wild hybrid and not have known about it and then bred it into corn lines so it is hard to know really where it has happened. |

Posted - 20/06/2012 : 18:47:54 And kdlang very new to all the breeding stuff and am considering it when they are fully grown but I'm guessing a hybrid is good? Sorry if a slightly silly question :) |

Posted - 20/06/2012 : 17:43:22 It was fated to be. And you must never go against the fates lol. Just a little note tho that if you are ever thinking of breeding from him that anything with ultra in is considered a hybrid. |
