I guess I don't see how you think continuing to breed a line with genetic defects, that is more likely to be a train wreck than other morphs, is putting the animal first. Sure, trainwrecks could happen with any morph, it's a fact of nature. But it's known that spiders are much more likely to have these issues, and they are still bred. Like I said before, I'm not being high and mighty, because I want to own and breed spiders too. But I think claiming to still be putting the animals interests 100% first in this situation is not true. KNOWING that they are more likely to trainwreck and still breeding them is because of personal reasons, not for the snake. Putting the animal first is in regard to ALL aspects, including breeding.
