    Thanks for all the kind words. Both of them are actually pretty small. The female is only about 12 feet or so and the male is maybe 7 feet long. I really like them and think they actually make good pets as long as you use a little common sense. I actually thought long and hard before pairing them up. After all, I got both of them for free as rescues myself. I really wanted to try my hand at breeding burms and figured that albinos would be much easier to find homes for.

    From what I have heard, AN(as in one) albino burmese python has been found in Florida.

    Also, you can find albino burmese pythons as low as $85, they probably wont go down much lower...

    Actually my male is also wild caught. He was found in somebodies back yard in St Paul and caught by St Paul animal control. When I first got him he had a bunch of cuts and scratches on his face that looked like he had pushed his way through a screen of some kind. All healed up now though.

    Got to give them credit. They are some tough animals.

    I may be interested in a pair when you get eggs, I seem to be lacking some burms.:salute:

    Well, here is the result of the above photos. I didn't get too many pics, the battery died in my camera after just a couple shots, so no pics of the egg mass as I wanted to get them set up right away before I recharged the battery. There were 22 eggs all together and they all look good, so a nice little clutch from my nice little burms.

    What a proud little mama.

    You can see that she tore up the paper pretty good making her nest. She was amazingly docile about me taking her eggs, just a little hissing was all. She's always been a real good girl.
