Health Defects in Albinos?

[neilgolli]

And, if you really want to argue with your friend, then tell him that, according to his logic of animals with bad genes ought not be kept as pets, he ought to never own a dog because every breed has some type of genetic based disease/diseases that tend to be specific to the breed because of the inbreeding done to select for the traits of the breed.

Your right, I need to go shoot my dogs and put all my morphs in the freezer and join PETA today.......

zhang, Your friend needs some hands on experience with animals and not a left slanted "schooling" on natural evolution and genetics. An albino ball is the exact same animal, with the same needs and care requirements of a normal ball python just with a different paint job. While most are weeded out by predation in the wild, don't be fooled into thinking that adult morphs don't exist in the African bush. Some mutations hinder while others assist in daily lives.

I'm off now, be back later.

ps, go out and buy that pied, its good for the economy
