I'm just curious, has anyone ever seen an albino dumeril? Or any other morph for that reason? I am trying to imagine how an albino would look... it's got to be nice!

There are a few people out there working on variants of dumerils, but the only morph that has been remotely recognized is an albino-looking individual out of Germany. This is not a traditional albino, but what appears to be a T or even a hypo. I know that several people are working with hypo-like animals, or pastel-like animals, but I haven't seen anything concrete. I'm sure some of the more experienced dum breeders could supply you with better information, but the bottom line is that the dumeril gene pool is too small, and the likelihood of multiple morphs in this species (like with ball pythons or BCC's) is slim to none.

Here is a weblink to the albino:

What kind of rosy's do you have? I have an adult male mid-baja! He is a great snake!

Our male is a baja (a yearling). Our female is going on 2 but we're not sure of her specifics. Both are in the photo, the male is stretched out in the back.

No such luck, so far as I can tell. We introduced the male in November and by December, both had changed their eating habits (refusing all together at first). After a posting here on Kingsnake, we separated the two, now they almost always eat a pinkie or two each week (much smaller than normal). The male, however, decided to regurg last weeks meal just before feeding time. Folks on the kingsnake forum suggested the change in appetite may be related to seasonal cooling and they seem happier in the cooler temps (about 75 F). Now we're hoping as the season warms up, so do their appetites. Maybe next season there will be some mating.

Good luck...I'd be pairing mine up too, but they drop so much in temperature during their cooling period. I'll stick with the sand boas, they are easier to manipulate with in the temps of my reptile room!
