    Whoa- giant difference
    So what's the lipstick line? Is that Kahl too?

    Yes, lipstick is a Kahl Strain too, just a nickname for that particular "line" is all. Each line is usually done through selective breeding to fine tune a certain aspect or trait that the breeder decided to enhance upon.

    So I went back to the same store today and it's just an albino. Today it had so many MITES it looked like someone spilled pepper on it. They had something mixed up in a garden sprayer and was soaking it down.

    I'm not surprised at all. This is why so many members on this forum and others strongly suggest purchasing snakes from breeders.
    This is boa season and I'm fairly certain that Jimisnakes.com has albinos....

    It shouldn't need to go to a vet just for mites. But I agree, I hope they do the right thing for it and get rid of those mites!

    Jimi, thank you for the mini lesson on boa morphs! That pic of that coral head was awesome! Do you have one (or a link to one) of the whole snake? What's the point of looking at a boa when you can't see it's tail?
