Hi Paul! That is a sharp lookin' albino burm you've got there. Very nice contrast, crisp.
The lack of selective breeding is the main reason we don't see as many quality ones as we used to. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people that buy morphs according to the name of the morph without any regard to the quality of the pattern/colors. I could go on a tangent as to why people are selling "normals" that are actually Heinz 57s, for a mere $50 at a time when our hobby is being threatened in this very area. But I'll stop there, for now.
"Is this snake worth finding an equally attractive female ABP?"
If you've got the passion for the quality, which you seem to have, I suggest you begin searching. I'd request photos of both of the parents because of how colors can fade with age. I started keeping Burmese Pythons nearly 35 years ago and I'd love to have an albino that looks as sharp as your male does. If I may offer a lil' advice on breeding, especially breeding burms - "A farm mentality will serve you well."
Best wishes! HH ----- Due to political correctness run amuck, this ol' hillbilly is now referred to as an: Appalachian American
