My quoted email says it all I suppose, not much more to add to it really. Ric did not tell me exactly where his source animals came from, that was just his answer to my question. And I still trust the info.

One other thing that has led me to at least believe there may be some fact there, I had 2 people this year, inquire about these pyros, and their initial question asked if my albino pyros were the ones that originated in the Santa Rita area. So, that is out there for sure, because I hadn't even responded to them at that point.

In the end, I have still only heard orgin stories that make them pure. I have yet to hear anyone mention that they crossed them, or knew who did, to create the albino. Despite plenty of people arguing it, I haven't heard anything that really shed doubt on it other than "someone told me those were crosses."

I do wish, that if my email was going to be copied and pasted here as I sent it, I would've been told. Especially when it said maybe I could come on here an comment, lol. I love to be part of these discussions, but only get on the forums every so often with a house full of kids and animals that need my attention. I never stop learning from good posting.

I do think that after this year, I am going to sell my breeders, I've got my hands in some other projects, that are taking enough time and money, and it hasn't been as enjoyable defending these fantastic snakes every other inquiry. It's amazing how many people with no interest really, just bash things. And since I only do it for the enjoyment in the end, it's taken some of the fun away.
