Hope this helps.
I would rather have no more wild ball pythons being caught for the pet trade, but it is not going to stop. Major breeders are looking for new morphs not just more combos. If some new morph is found it will make its way into the pet trade. Even if a breeder is reputable does not mean that they don't have wild caught snakes.
