Odd state out on albino?

[Cass]

All I've ever seen in the industry BEFORE I got into snakes was albinos, absolutely everywhere, couldn't move without finding a snake for sale at about 200. Now Ironically that I've moved and got my boyfriend into the hobby of Ball Pythons and we're looking for one- it seems there is a short of the lovely ladies!

Is it:
Bad market timing to find an Albino female?
Not a common gene in my area?
Looking in the wrong places?

All I want is a pretty albino that is a female at a regular price! I've reached out to the few local breeders wanting 600+ for a single gene.

Plenty of albinos and combos on Morph Market. If you're looking to only purchase local, might just be bad timing (hatching season hasn't quite taken off yet), or the local breeders in your area have gotten out of Albino morphs in favor of newer, more exciting stuff.

Edit: $600 is crazy for a single gene unless they're trying to sell you proven breeders!

check out morphmarket.com

I just saw single gene albino females for as little as $160. You're sure to find something you like on there and will be able to find one from a reputable breeder as well.

Good luck!
