What are the odds of finding an albino in the wild? What are the odds of finding a het in the wild, and then proving it out? Has anyone done or seen any numbers? If so, how would this number be calculated? If there is only one known albino from the wild in a given species, would the ratio be one in all the others ever collected?
This is a quote from the website about "Blondie", an albino Carpet Python: "Estimates of the incidence of albinism in wild snakes vary from 1:10,000 to 1:30,000." However, there is no reference or other information about the quote.
