sounds like a price for good captive bred normals...but if they do prove out then WOW...what a deal...research them and ask for paperwork.

This is VERY likely fraudulent. Think from his perspective... he wants to sell some "farm hatched" ball pythons imported from Africa. He bought them for $10 each. He wants to make a quick sale by making the claim that they may be het albinos. You jump on the deal just in case. You breed them later and get NO albinos.

... which is more likely: only one was het and the other is one of the 33.3%, both are het and you'll get albinos next year, both are part of the 33.3%, or these pythons are not descended from het albino balls.

If you don't mind paying this price for completely normal ball pythons AND spending the time and money to raise and breed them only to produce nothing but normal ball pythons... then, by all means get the pair.

I say don't get them w/o some kind of evidence.
