ANYHOW. Regarding both topics.

You really take into consideration the phrase 'you get what you pay for'. If the albino was in fact a ball python (which I doubt and assume it could've easily been a burmese) then the breeder was probably inexperienced, uneducated, or basically had no idea what he was doing.

Just my thought.

Hm, I believe you, but I've been to Tennessee, and I have been to Mississippi.. which is almost worse.. and neither of them are as bad as Kansas, Utah, or Oregon.. from personal experience anyway, thats just what I know from the areas in which my family dwell. :]
