The Far of Future of morphs

Here is a question/ thought pattern that just entered my head so i thought i'd share. I'm always browsing the genetics here and I see the envelope always being pushed. There are certain levels of morphs in my opinion. Those that a regular joeshmo (AKA. me) can have. These morphs are those such as pastels maybe spiders or mojaves. Then the next level is a callaboration of these with other morphs. Then finally the extreme combinations only yet to beformed suchas a Pastel x spider x yellow belly het for albino/ het pied. Lol.

But, i wonder what the ultimate outcome of this extensive breeding will be. Will it be an extremely dillute snake? Possibly an all brown or white snake with little or no pattern? Scientist believe that a possible outcome of human migration and evolution in a few thousand years could be a single color race were all of our traits combine together to form a brownish human being. Could this be the eventual outcome of pushing the limits of Ball Python breeding?

i will one day produce an invisible snake..... just watch lol

IMHO, I think what is happening to humans is actually the opposite of what breeding morphs is doing to Balls.

Humans are combining their diverse traits in more and more ways. That means the offspring have more genetic diversity within them. Humans looking more alike and less diverse is a symptom of that.

Balls are bred selectively to weed out certain traits and bring forward others (usually recessive genes). It's almost like creating new snake races instead of combining them, as we are doing more and more in the human community.

Does this make sense?

Or how about breeding snakes with the largest spurs to each other until they have legs again (at least rear ones).

im 50% to my goal of a monkey snake... all my snakes exhibit a long prehensile tail like body. ears is the next step then of course fur. but i digress, i dont think we will ever get them down to the point where they all look the same since breeders are selective breeding. i mean sure some out there might be putting 1001 different genes in snakes (NERD im looking at you :D)

by breeding so diversly we are also spreading bad traits about balls, such as a spider doing a head roll

What is that? :confused: Thanks.

the head roll is when the spider will roll his head in a circular motion, bending it backwards.... kinda hard to explain, anyone have any pics or vids of this?? its usually due to inbreeding.

No it's not, they could'nt possibly be more outbred ;)
