And more than likely never will be.Every possible scenario has a flaw or two and this is no exception.Buying anything het is a serious chance at getting nothing but "het" for normals.Genetics paperwork written up and copied about the animal is about 50% accurate.This can be tampered with and is NOT a guaranteed way of getting anything.Buying from reputable breeders as everyone here states also is about 60% accurate,They too can be dishonest if needbe for the quick buck.Taking pics of the animal for sale isnt accurate at all.Alot of snakes will change color,pattern,etc as they grow so taking a pic of say a baby b/p het for albino isnt going to look the same as when it gets to breeding age.



Someone mentioned about using microchips for the purpase of keeping track of the animal in ?,That could get very expensive in the long run and to me wouldnt be worth the time and effort to do so.Lets say you have 1,000 baby b/ps and you want to microchip about half of that.500 b/ps at $60 bucks a pop is alot of wasted money.Out of those 500 you sell 200 to the genral public.That leaves you with 300 b/ps to either keep as pets,sell as a whole,or keep for future breeders.Now as the ones you sold to the genral public begin to grow,some will make it others wont.So out of the 200 sold to the genral public about 150 of those survive to make it to adulthood.50 b/ps have died along the way and 300 dollars has been shot down for microchipping.All that is just hypothetical just imagine if it was say 5000 then the amount of money you would lose compared to saving is going to outway,Still want to do the microchip theory.



Basically what all this means is there is no guaranteed way of getting exactly what you are expecting.Its just like gambling.You throw the dice and out of 5 throws you have at least 2 chances of crapping out.You may get the het for albino you've always wanted or you may wind up with just a normal het for nothing,Chalk it up as a loss and move on.Everything in life is like a piece of sour candy,Sweet on the outside,sour in the middle.Regards Bill McLeod
