I honestly did not know that hybrids outside of the wild even existed until this thread. I had heard of the water moccasin and the copperhead mating and producing some very venomous offspring in the NC area.

Speaking from the point of view of a rodent rescue, the majority of rescues aren't against all breeding practices. I've only heard of a few reptile rescues in my area, and a couple of those breed snakes and geckos themselves. Probably because they're never full up on rescue cases. We actually just got back from a lady's home who does all rescue, with snakes and birds being her specialty. She breeds pastel ball pythons. The biggest problem with breeding dogs, cats, and rodents (for pets,) is that anyone can do it, but not anyone should. From my limited understanding, it takes more knowledge and dedication to breed something like snakes, especially a hybrid.

I have no idea of that makes sense since I just woke up. But I hope I got my opionion out there.
