yay! he emailed me back, and he says he's still working with them! apparently his snows breed later in the year, and since he waits a few months for their colors (or lack thereof ) to show, the snows are available much later than the tangs, carrottails, etc. yay!

Hey,

Sweet! cant wait to see what some of his will look like...! Hey you maybe know how mutch or around what price they will sell them at Albey's?

well, i don't think he'd mind me sharing. actually, he said he gets totally bowled over with inqueries. so, i'll include a copy of the email he said he's planning to send in response to questions about his snows:

begin albey correspondence:

Hi,
Thank you for your interest in our Snow Leopard Geckos. They are one of our
favorite morphs and certainly one of our most popular. We have been working
with them for about five years now and each year they get better looking.

The Snow Leopard Geckos breed later in the year than the rest of my
colonies. I don't know if the reason for this is a genetic thing or if it is
just when they become sexually mature. That coupled with the fact that I
have to wait at least five months to see how they will turn out (The Snow's
have a tendency to turn light yellow at about Four months), makes for much
later in the season offerings.

The pricing on the Snow's will be between $125.00 for ones that have the
Snow Genes but are mostly yellow or grey, to $500.00 for a top Male. There
will probably not be too many of those though. Any Males that nice would
probably stay here. LOL Most of them will be in the $175.00 - $300.00 range.

I do not have a waiting list for the Snow's as I get at least 10 e-mail's a
week inquiring about them but I will be happy to add your name to our
mailing list. Whenever I update my site with new animals you will receive
e-mail notification. This means you will also be notified even if no new
Snow's are added. If you don't mind that please let me know and I will add
you to the list. If you change your e-mail address for some reason please
let me know so I can update your contact information.

Please get back to me if you would like to be added to the list.

PS - I will have a limited amount available on the new list I am working on
and will add more on each new listing. Males however didn't start hatching
until last month (I waited to see which Females were producing the nicest
ones before I decided which eggs to incubate for Males), so it will be at
least three more months till I will have them listed. Please note that all
animals are sold on a first come first served basis.

end albey correspondence

so- tell everyone you know who's insane about snow phase leopard geckoes! i know i can't wait!
