I actually went this route a couple weeks ago. My wife wanted something other than a ball so she picked up a baby boa from my local reptile store who I normally have real good dealings with how ever on this occasion when she got it home I examined it and I was pretty sure it was at the beginning stages of an RI so I had her take it back (she was not real happy with me). I agree with the pricing on the albinos. Maybe I should just give in and let her find another albino boa.
