    my first ALBINO rtb
    so yesterday i seen an add on kingsnake for an 07 albino female bci and the guy who had it up was within 2 hours... ive been looking for my first rtb as ive had balls now for about 6 years and i seen this as my perfect opportunity, she was born april 31, 2007 and is the biggest sweetheart ever... i know she could be a little bigger but i am ok with her comming up slow, i weighed her yesterday and she came in at 420 grams and i would say she is about 3 - 3.5 feet long (prolly closer to 3).. i guess my main question is what strain do some of you think this is most likely to be? (better pics will be posted this evening)

    That pic is blurry, but I'm 99% sure it's a Kahl strain.

    So, remind us of the differences between Kahl and Sharpe? (Please, I have homework to do and so I'd like to just mooch off of your knowledge....) :D

    Sharps are extremely colorful and tend to hold on to more of that color as they age. Sharps make awesome sunglows! :P

    So this must be why some people with Kahl albinos use a lipstick line to cross them with???? Does this make sense????
    Also, are Kahl's the ones that stay really yellow as they age and Sharps do the orange-y thing?

    Aww! Congrats! I've been thinking about getting a RTB, and I'm leaning toward a salmon or albino..

    Yes, I'm almost 99% sure. As youngins it's a little harder for ME to tell, some are much better at judging than I am. As they get older it's a lot easier to tell the difference. How much did you pay? That would definitely tell me the strain, lol. Kahl's are about 500-900 and sharp's are about 1500-2000 each.
