Thanks for all the replies everyone!

First of all, he isn't really my friend, not sure where you guys got this idea, lol. Actually, he runs the Rainforest Reptile Refuge Society in Surrey, ( a large suburb of Vancouver) where unwanted and abused pets are taken in. I think the society is very good, because there are no government sponsored systems that help reptiles. The SPCA in Canada lacks staff who specialize in reptiles, and most of the time a reptile is taken in, it is put down. My mom took me there when I was little, because she knows I'm really into reptiles. It is actually an amazing place with tons of species and hundreds of animals.

I have learned a lot form the comments. I guess that it is true albinos, and other morphs, spider, carmel, etc. have certain defects and do not measure up to the normal, which may cause them to have a shorter lifespan in the wild. But here in captivity, since we provide them with everything they need, it is more of less that same as keeping a normal. Thanks again!
