What would you do; Snow vs albino pied?
Like the title says, what would you get into given the options? Reasons would be appreciated :D

I would be hoping to pull a male snow out of that clutch i think so I could breed that back to the female pied in the next season or two and make pure triple hets. then from there go for my albino pied, lightning pieds and possible snow pieds?!
That's how I'd swing it if I were doing that project starting with the snakes you have now. As you said, the albino het vpi axanthic for your vpi axanthic het albino makes it nice and neat, everything is either homozygous or 100% het from that pairing. Hopefully get that snow male to put to your pied female and produce the triples. I'd probably hold back 2 males and all of the female triple hets. Couple years after that you could be hatching out some madness.

Oh definitely, the axanthic was more a personal preference I had and more of a spur of the moment buy at the expo than a calculated decision on where to go with it. The het albino and and 100 dollar off added just enough value for me to pull the trigger. I love axanthics in themselves and with also the potential to make albino/lightning pieds.

My thoughts EXACTLY!
