I am glad that this did not get crazy...... No flames or bad additudes..... I think, like I said before, if it happens in nature it is fine to do it in captivity...... I also figure that cross breeding is better than inbreeding...... For the snake that is..... All of these crazy color morphs and patterns are the result of inbreeding...... Looks good in your collection but what is going on with the snake itself...... As for the rhino-gaboon crosses there is no problem with head structure..... Gaboons and rhinos have pretty much the same body structure..... When the babies are born some head shapes lean towards gaboons and some lean towards rhinos...... I have no seen any problems with neonates at all..... And adults seem to do as well as pure breeds...... Thanks to all that answered my question.......
