    Cross species breeding question

    We have a male jungle carpet/diamon python cross. The vet says that it is not possible to breed to a ball python, but I have heard of a jungle ball. And a few people have told me it is hard but possible. If anyone is wondering about my other post, he has not come in contact with my females.

    Re: Cross species breeding question

    That's a touchy subject. Some people hate it because its wrong. I don't like hybrids myself. I wouldn't breed them together.

    Other than that, I didn't see a question?? Lol.

    I didn't mean it was wrong, I was just stating a reason they don't like it.


    My bad.

    A "jungle ball" is just referring to a particular pattern a ball python might have...it's not a cross with a jungle carpet python.

    Re: Cross species breeding question

    Bpkid, you and I seem to be having issues already and I've only been on this site for an hour. The question was--is it possible to breed a jungle carpet/ diamond python cross to a ball python? Sorry I wasn't specific. I didn't say I was going to do it, I just wanted to know if it could be done. Thank you jlc for clearing that up on what a jungle ball is, you have told me that my sister in law is, um, incorrect.

    Re: Cross species breeding question

    I am not trying to have issues. I'm just trying to help. I didn't mean to be rude, I was just saying, I,me,Shaun,bpkid, wouldn't do it. I didn't tell you not to do it. Yes, I'm pretty sure it's possible and I might be able to find pics if you are interested.

    I'm sorry if I was being mean or rude .
