I'm a bit bummed out as I was really looking forward to having a for sure het male for once and a double het on top of that.
What a bummer Randy. Just out of curiousity, how did it become unavailable after you put a deposit down?
Re: Favorite Albino Combo
Sad story, but not quite as bad as I thought at first.
A guy at the Denver show last weekend was selling out of the hobby including the 2.4 double het pied albinos he produced in 07. They where really sweet, most 500 grams or more, and including a female with the best ringer I've ever seen (at least 1/2 of white all the way around). Anyway, his prices where very reasonable to start with and he had a big blow up picture of the pied and albinos breeding but no one seemed to have any money. I was toying with blowing my entire snake budget (not much) on a male but hadn't done it yet so at the end of the show he made me an offer I couldn't refuse. However, I had taken a check for the mojave I sold so couldn't pay him the full amount so made a deposit until I could cash the check and pick up the male for sure double het albino pied.
Turns out he also sold his last rack at the show and maybe that had something to do with it but the day after the show he discovered his snake room at 106 and all remaining snake dead. I was of course sad about my male but devastated to think of those 4 females until I found out he made a similar un-reusable offer to another vendor at the end of the show who took those home so only two males double hets and a pet where lost. Not to trivialize that loss of life of the males and pet but female double hets approaching maturity to me would have also been a great loss to the industry.
So now I'm getting a possible double het from RDR instead. Would have been nice to have had a 100% het albino but now I’ll have three different 66% chance het albino possible het combo males (one also 66% chance het VPI axanthic, another also 66% chance het stripe, and the third also 66% chance het Pied). Apparently I’m the last person still working with possible het males but I guess I wouldn’t have it any other way, lol. RDR still has these for $100 so especially if you live close enough or can catch a show to avoid shipping why breed a normal male when these possible double hets are only 1 in 9 chance of being normal.

I really like the albino super black pastel that GCR's has.. The blizzard is cool as hell!! I never really liked albinos untill I saw the black pastel and super black pastel albinos.

Re: Favorite Albino Combo
Still trying to figure out what to do with my Albino... :(
Re: Favorite Albino Combo
Albino spiders all the way baby! Someday I will make my own but first I need to make me some bees and pewters those are my #1 goals. If I could find a nice albino female that wouldn't break the bank right now I might pick her up just so that I could start getting her up to size but I've only got ONE space left in my rack (never thought I'd say that) and it's reserved for my cinny female (if I ever find one that I really like which I can afford)
Re: Favorite Albino Combo
You know, I posted on fauna that an albino pied cross would be good, but the more I think about it..........an albino clown would also equally rock!!!!
