Show off your Lavender albinos!!

I am looking to get into the lavender albinos and would just like to see what your snakes look like. Also, how well do they sell?

I dont have one, but I've seen the same ads today that I saw months and weeks ago.

Lavendar Albinos are a fairly high dollar morph. They don't turn over that often. As a collector, I would love to have one, but the price point is a little high for me right now.

Agreed, They are not cheap so they wont be jumping out of your hands right away.

Actually females were in huge demand this year. I sold out and left a few customers hanging. I just sold my last male and only have one male spider lav left. They do sell and pretty quickly in my experience.

Here are some photos...

Jason, I'm not sure I understand your meaning?

Dave you always have gorgeous animals! It doesn't make me wonder why you sell out quickly. You're an amazing breeder with smokin animals at all times!

Lavenders are not hatched purple.......they are hatched looking like one of the highest contrast albinos that you will ever see.....as they age....the white changes to a lavender/purple color.......when they are about 3-6 months of age is when the color change starts......in the beginning of the change they look like a dirty albino, and between 12 and 24 months of age, they turn purple, instead of a 'dirty white'.......

The age my 'leftovers' are at, they are at that diry albino stage.....about 500-750 grams......so they don't sell well......the people who know how lavenders progress like them this size, but the peolpe who know, have them already......

Hope that all that rambling makes sense......
