human greed basically. and it really doesnt seem to matter about the animals/reps in question. look at persian cats. the problems british bulldogs have etc etc. the list goes on and its all down to what humans percieve as perfection.......and of course greed.

What's the problem? It isn't like they scrape the scales off them 
It's a naturally occuring mutation just like colour morphs

It is definitely a naturally occurring mutation, Lynne. All of the mutations we have in snakes and lizards are naturally occurring! |
