    Ok if these are supposed to be able to create this yellow blush albinos and she is just getting into ball pythons.Then why is she selling them? I would think this would be a big foot in the door in the ball python world.

    Re: ??What price??

    If you must know the personal dealing of what is going on, which in this case because of the genetics, it may be beneficial to justify the sale...

    The reason for the sale is this.

    I am getting married on March 21st of this year. As we ALL know, marriage is a very expensive ordeal, and I am moving to a new house with my wife as soon as we come back from the honeymoon and she doesnt like snakes. So they needed to go to help fund the wedding and for respect for my future wifes lack of love for the reptiles.

    With all the preparations going on, I have not had the personal time to take to sell these animals, and I needed money right away for wedding expenses.

    As a way to help me out... I sold all my snakes to my cousins wife, because she has some free time to then post them for sale. I have been talking to her to help her with the postings. She is not keeping them because I got her heavily into Bearded Dragon Morphs and she has been breeding them wants to focus on them.

    So in order to recoup the money she gave to me for the snakes, she is posting them for sale.

    I hope that clears anything confusion up for you.

    Now, I know that MANY people believe everything that is printed in the paper. But you, more than anyone.. should know that the media makes anything to do with snakes look bad.

    I know what is said in that forum thread does look bad.. However, I was there, I know first hand everything that went on with that situation, and it was NOT AT ALL how the paper said it was. Steve was a victim in this case by some very bad people.

    Out of respect for Steve, i am going to say it is not my place to bring up that situation in this thread. I think those accusations should stay in and be cleared up in that thread.

    All I will say with that situation is that Steve have NEVER treated his animals poorly, and has always put them before his own needs, even in tough times, they have eaten before him.

    I know the condition of his animals, seeing as I have worked for him many years. So personally have cleaned them up.

    Please be respectful. I acknowledge that thread exists.. but in this case.. we are talking about the existance of a morph.. while reputation does come into play.. lets keep BOI threads in their place so as not to bring daram to another site.

    Thank you.
    Hence why i removed it .

    A yellow blush is a line of albino just like the faded and high contrast lines.
    The yellow blush albinos tends to have more of a solid yellow head and the yellow bleeds out more into where the white would be making a more uniform yellow colored snake.
    The one odd thing about this line is that you can visually tell which normals are hets and which ones aren't when they emerge from the egg.
    The hets have an axanthic look to them but change to a more normal coloring after their first shed.
    Not many people where working with this line due to the originator of it but they are out there and will become increasingly more available over the next few years.

    Not to sound rude but you basically just admitted you were wrong about this which is admirable. But you also spent the better part of the day calling a new seller a liar and demeaning her. I think an apology is in order. Hide behind the claim that you were trying to "warn" her about MKR "scams" all you want but the fact remains that even when she revealed that the hets were from a completely different breeder you were relentless.

    Steve,

    Asking this purely out of my own curiosity to better understand this variant and my theory behind it. Is this statement an absolute? Have all the "axanthic" looking switchers proven to be hets?

    Thanks

    As far as I know, ALL of the hets have had the different look when they hatched.
