James, it is funny, I felt the same way. Most of the snakes we covet are animals that probably would not survive in the wild due to a genetic "mutation", i.e. leucistic, albino etc. They are not good traits to have in nature so they tend to become a fatality.

I do want to preserve it, I froze it to protect it, but I will use a cut Alcohol solution. That seems best. I dont want to display it as a trophy but more of a "wow, I cant believe that happens" example. Thanks to all.

tom
