    BP / Carpet hybrid

    Not sure if this is the right location.
    I have seen a few pictures of hybrids and I must say I kinda like them

    Most of them I've seen cost more than $2k ..

    Question is, how easy is it to actually produce any BP/Carpet hybrids ?

    Re: BP / Carpet hybrid

    From what I've heard it takes some trickery.... Freshly shed skin from the opposite sex of those animals and maybe a last minute switching of the female.

    a heart shaped breeding tub and alittle Barry White couldn't hurt either.....

    I've seen IJ x Ball crosses and jungle carpet x ball crosses and they do look really awesome!

    Wonder what crazy colouration you would get when breeding morphs to carpets. I.e. a JCP male to a BEL female

    Dunno.... I think they are cool, andappreciate the novelty factor... But have never been a huge fan of crosses, that could never have actually happened on their own in the wild..... The carpindro is about the only hybrid that I dont think is a horrible idea....I saw bob clark had aspider ballx ij cross a few months back @ the ok reptiles show.....was cool, but my money will be better served buying a desert, or lav......
