Re: Albino Burmese prices
Unfortunately Burms, even albino Burms, are relatively common. He could probably get between $150 to $250 for it. One reason for their low cost is that they can lay a lot of eggs, and there aren't too many people that are willing to take care of them once they get large. Many people will buy them on impulse when they are small, but have a difficult time finding a home for them later on. You can find out some current prices by checking out Kingsnake.com and Reptileauctions.com.
Re: Albino Burmese prices
Burms should NOT have an attitude. An albino burm that is aggressive (especially it it's a male) is going to be hard to place. Most burms are puppy dog tame.
A 4 year old burm that's 1500 grams? Uh.. that can't be right. My 8 month old burm is at LEAST 900 grams. A 4 year old burm would usually be over 10' long.
Re: Albino Burmese prices
I've seen Albino Burms for as low as $75.00 to as high as $225.00. The thing is as Shelby mentioned, Burms and Albino Burms are very common.
You find them at every pet shop here in So FL from $75.00-$150.00 and sometimes you'll see them in local newspaper classifieds "Burmese Python 5ft-12ft for $100" or "Free to good home w/cage".
I've also never met a Burm with a bad attitude, Burms are usually very docile and calm with minimal handling.

Like i said, it was a wild guess as to its age and weight. I've never had a burm nor do i know very much about them...i just wanted to know prices...and found the answer i was looking for..thank you all!

Re: Albino Burmese prices
Unless it was a really big female or het for another more valuable morph, $450 is quite pricey.
