Are we gonna 'morph' these, too?

Posted by dorkdog on September 04, 2000 at 08:39:46:

Hello, friends!

I find it rather distressing to see the recent posts regarding morphing of the Drymarchons... I got rid of my cornsnakes and kings because of all this 'morph' business... please let's not let the Indigo follow the same trail. We must not forget that the Indigo is KING of the colubrids, and quite magnificent enough in their rarity, size, and disposition alone.

For once, we are helping mother nature to restore that which we have destroyed, can't we just leave it at that?

I am concerned that soon we will see 'red' indigos (someone referred to that in an earlier post' and albinos and heterozygous for this and that.... we'll see that the genetic makeup will eclipse the natural beauty and uniqueness as reason to pursue this obsession, which I share. I'm surprised someone has not yet tried to sell het for red indigos to this point - let's hope it never happens!

Sorry to ramble, but after browsing the kings and corns and returning to Drymarchon, I don't want to lose the freshness of just looking at the animal for what it is.
