BTW, have you ever heard of a reptile getting sunburned or skin cancer?

Reptile skin is most definitely different from Mammals. If you look at many reptiles, even iguanas as an example, their skin turns nearly black in the morning to absorb and soak in the heat from the sun yet the skin does not "burn". I do not think that the skin will burn or cause cancer like it does in mammals and I think that the white will reflect more heat than it would if they were sold black thus leaning the chances of burning.

More than likely. While I'm not going to go into the long drawn out story of where and how they came about (it will all be detailed on the website shortly). I believe that at the very least they are from the same mother and more than likely the same father.

Andrew, sorry buddy, but she is in florida for good. Most crodilians need atleast a year to aclimate before breeding, so she will be spending all her time down in sunny florida relaxing, hopefully falling in love:D

Awesome dude! Look forward to hearing about it. Looks like you two are heading into a good adventure

Wow... those are really hot. Love the pics. Please keep us supplied with pics as they grow.
Do you think that it's the same as BPs, where an albino x albino results in all albino young?
