may have created a new Cantaloupe hybrid?

Ok I planted Israel Melons (Hao'gen) which are a sweet cantaloupe (but taste like a honey dew and smell like guava)

however something odd has happen to me and has never happened before with these seeds. I had saved seeds from the israel melons in 2005 that I planted and used them year after year with no problem until that is this year!

What has occured and I am guessing is that it has seemed to cross polinate with the banana melons i planted or something else, because now I havwe cucumber shaped melons that have bumps on them just like a pickling cucumber! That does not look or feel anything like the hao'gens so somehow I have a wierd hybrid here.

I need some advice
