If you use a het for albino then some offspring are het and some aren't, you won't know the difference so unless you want to keep a lot of the offspring and figure who carries the albino gene then cool. Some people say they can tell if it het albino from the eyes but I can't and I'm sure neither can a newbie. If you buy an albino and he mates with your girl all the offspring are normal het albino and there is no guessing. So if you buy a poss. het albino then it is possible he is albino and possible he is not (don't sound like a fun breeding project). Unless you want to keep several snakes from the litter I would get a 100% het that way there is no guess work.
It is probably easier to sell the offspring if they are 100% hets as opposed to a possible.
