BP Registry?
Ok, so this is probably a silly idea, but does it bother anyone else that it's so tough to find out where a snake originally came from, or what its grandparents were, or what its offspring look like? If you get a snake directly from a breeder, it simplifies it some, but what about snakes that have been sold more than a few times?
I was thinking I really wish there was a BP registry like there are dog registries, where I could look up the "pedigree" of a snake. I would love something with pictures like on Albey's website, where you could see what a snake's parents looked like, and if it's had any offspring, what they look like. I know that BP genetics are simpler than dog genetics, but it seems difficult to undertake really directed selective breeding if you don't know what's hiding in the unexpressed genes. This would also help you know what possible recessives might be hiding and help you decide what pairings to make.
Besides, having registration IDs on each snake that you could look up online would really help put a boot to scammers.
What do you ya'll think?
