i don't agree with that.
small breeders can out cross and mix it up just as easy as anyone else can.
get hets and poss. hets from one line or breeder, get the visual morphs from another or buy unrelated pairs!
you can also trade out hets and visuals to outcross.:)

Re: Personality Linked to Morphs
Yea that sounds reasonable. Perhaps it is just as easy. I was thinking more of the case where you would cut with a different normal and then reisolate the morph.
Re: Personality Linked to Morphs
Here's mine:
Spider male: very laid back, friendly like, likes to go "wheee I'm upside down!"
Pastel Female: terrified of everything
normal female: sweet and calm
het albino male: satan in snake form
het albino female: split personality...."I could take your fingers off/Sure I'd love to come out of the cage and be held!"
Re: Personality Linked to Morphs
In my experience, I think I would agree with everyone else on the spiders...They are SO inquisitive and curious.
As far as the other morphs, honestly Ive had no trouble with any other morph or hatchling morph as far as aggressiveness or difficulty feeding...ive had more aggression issues with normal hatchlings than anything else.
Re: Personality Linked to Morphs
I don't have too many different snakes but what I do have is a pastel who used to be afraid of his shadow but is slowly coming around and a normal girl that is incredibly sweet.
