Ok i'm just curious. Let's say you decide to work with a specific color of normal boas that you take a liking to. You spend about 20 years selectively breeding them to only the best of boas containing the traits you desire. After all is said and done, you have the same boas you started with that Jeff "Schmeff" could accidently pop out and sell for $70. Now you decide to breed this into the albino line that has not been around as long and has nothing to do with the traits you have been working so hard for. You give it a few years until all your hets have that similar look you have been working on. Finally because you had a couple AWESOME albinos (as every large scale breeder should), you decide to sell your little hets for $2000. Does he throw the golden gate in for free? Oh yeah, and you wrote a low quality book too, so I guess that might make your normal boas "celebrities."
