If you really want an albino to breed, and want albino babies with the first breeding you really need another albino or het. albino mate. I am sure if you look around you can find a het albino pastel. Just make sure that you get it from a reputable breeder so you can be sure it is a true het. albino...Best of luck in your search...

ok well who besides N.E.R.D is a reputable breeder for ball pythons and should the male be the albino or the female i would assume the male because if i do want to keep breeding i can pair the male with more females....i also what other morphs are worth looking into that i can get the most out of with buying a albino male ????????

The recessive gene animals tend to hold up longer than dom or codom animals. Get what you like.
I would start with females and then in two years after they have picked up some size get the male or males.

I love albinos. You could get a pair of het albinos cheap enough.

i was thinking on picking up an 09 female and keeping her for till the end of the year i'm assuming it would go by weight in grams or 3 winters if i'm not mistaken until they are ready to breed...by that time i will have a good 2010 male ready to do his deed
