True they might mate, BUT did they produce fertile eggs or viable offspring?

I can't understand why anyone would want to try that anyway?! It's a bit like trying to hybridize an Amur leopard with a pigeon?...

Do a search here Victor and I believe you will find pictures and a thread or two about hybrid Eunectes (forget which one maybe a yellow) x Epicrates cenchria maurus, unless I imagined it.

There's a pic here of an apparent Green anaconda x Brb..
here is the photo ssthisto

There's just no need in my opinion, the anaconda is a stunning animal, with no extra messing around.

yeah ive always known its possible its just completely unnecessary i have to agree the anaconda is far superior in its true wild form im also not that keen on patternless anacondas or the other morphs for that matter

Well this is it. To me he green anaconda, to me, is the best looking wild type there is (Many may disagree, I understand). But I suppose where there is interest, there's going to be people pushing boundaries with morphs, it can be interesting to see, but I don't think they're for me as far as Anacondas go. There are a few Retic morphs I really like, usually the ones that don't move too far away from the naturally occurring, but I think a lot of them have just gone way too far.
