We’re excited to announce the release of three brand-new Hybrid categories on MorphMarket:
• Hybrid Pythons
• Hybrid Boas
• Hybrid Colubrids
These new sections make it easier to properly list, search, and explore animals that fall outside pure species. They also bring much-needed structure and transparency to a part of the hobby that has historically been difficult to navigate.
For anyone wanting a closer look at how traits are structured inside the new Hybrid categories, here are direct links to each group, and small explanations:
Hybrid Pythons
-
Species Tags - These cover the parentage itself, and should be used to define the species involved. For Example:
Ball+Borneo. -
Hybrid Combos - We also support hybrid combos within Hybrid categories, such as Rockball =
Ball+Rock -
Species Specific Trait Tags - Hybrid categories support all the same trait tags used in the pure species pages. To keep everything clear and searchable, each trait is automatically appended with the species short name. This prevents cross-species ambiguity while still making every inherited trait available.
Examples:
-
Albino (Ball)
-
Albino (Retic)
-
Albino (Carpet)
-
Albino (Burmese)
This also allows you to search all traits across a species:
If you’re working with hybrids, feel free to explore these tags and let us know if you spot anything missing, mis-categorized, or needing refinement. We’re continuing to tune the system as we go. We will also be expanding Hybrid categories into more groups in the future as we continue improving the system.
A quick note:
The hybrid trait systems are still new and being built out. While the categories are fully active, we are not enforcing their use just yet . Once the trait structure is finalized, hybrid listings will need to be placed in their appropriate categories.
