Chuck, thanks for your comments and reserved and professional attitude. Well if someone who I ask sends me photos of those snake implying they have ownership of them and is one of the best identifiers (experts) of morphs I've met in 30 years or more of snake keeping, then who am I to doubt his word especially when I have gone over dozens of other snakes and he picked out things on the animals I could not even determine. Either case, I will eventually get around to asking him about the snakes as it was implied that he had morphs and there's of course no need to mention him here. Perhaps he is in partnership of some as I don't see why he conveyed to me he owned them? Regardless, I trust his eval of the photo and think of course you know the fellow as he is your friend.

well, my friend, i dont think we know each other. i am not your enemy in any way shape or form...and i hate to insult you or facilitate more message board drama, however, you posted pictures of 6 snakes total. i recognize 4 of them and there are 3 different owners to those snakes. i am certainly not calling you a liar, i dont know the circumstances, but if someone told you that he owned all 6 of those, he is stretching the truth. that hot pink snake is now dead, it was owned by a good friend in NC. he also owns that adult female that is pictured in the grass. that hypo is at a nature center in GA and that leu that is under the tree is owned by a friend in GA. the same guy that partnered with me to produce the first ever F2 copper x cotton hybrids.

But, as i was saying before, i do not disagree with you. i think the snake looks like what they are calling the T albinos, but its often debated as to where those are actually albino or not. with the pics you posted, they clearly do not have pink eyes.
