i have an albino boa...WAY too young for breeding..shes just about a year old, so she has a while to go...

my question is:

she has a slight underbite...and i was totally against breeding her at all...but seeing some other posts, it made me second guess myself...

my reason for not wanting to breed her was that the albino gene is already a weak gene, as far as i know, and i did not want to weaken the gene pool anymore with a "defective" snake...

i bought her strictly for a pet...as with all my other animals...but as i am sure most of you have found...this hobby tends to become pretty expensive, and it would be nice to breed some of my animals and make a little profit (plus i've always wanted to see baby snakes born!)

what do you guys think?

to breed or not to breed? that is the question....

here's some pics of her:
