    Are Pinstripes still "in?" (and should I sell her or keep her?)

    So we got this adult female pinstripe ball python a couple years ago. She's a big girl, about 3-4 years old. She was a terrible first ball python for my daughter because she bites any chance she gets, at anything that moves. She has her good and bad days but she'll always be bitey. Naturally my 15 year old daughter has lost interest and wanted to rehome her. I am not sure anyone would want her-- I would not want to sell her to non-snake people, or to people with kids-- so I took her. She is a lovely snake in her own way.

    We bought her from a breeder who was getting out of the business because he just had a baby and didn't have time anymore. He had planned on breeding her.

    So my question is, would there be any possibility of a breeder wanting to buy her? Are Pinstripes still "in" or are they out of fashion now? If she is this bitey, would any breeder even want to breed such a snake? Or should we just be Lucy's forever home?
