In Reply to: Why is it fishy that they are from europe???????? posted by rainmaker on February 27, 2003 at 11:23:34:
Ok, to start off with you are correct amel does not always mean albino. Albino is a term incorrectly used in the herp world, these snakes are by NO means albino (lack of pigment). How can they be albino and/or extreme hypo? God himself would be the only one who would be able to tell the difference between a pure bairdi, and a hybrid bairdi with 10 years of crossing back to pure bairdi.
Why does it sound fishy, ok listen to yourself. "They" like "normal" animals "better" (did you mean more) than "we" do. Ok so why would they be interested in producing and marketing albinos? They are not at that high on morphs over there (not sure what this means).
If I must explain myself further so I dont upset anyone I will. It is fishy because bairdi are found in a VERY limited portion of this country. They are also comparatively limited in collections in the US, probably extremely limited in Europe, therefore making the chances of a pure amel/hypo bairdi popping up very slim.
Just my opinion, I dont know if their pure or not (dont really care)

:: First off they like normal animals better than we do.They are not at that high on morphs over there.Look at the albino hondos?
:I heard from the horses mouth that there was a het male sold at the orlando show several several years ago.Bill bought it and started his long project from one het male.
:also,somebody said it didn't look amel to them?Who said they were amel?Nobody!they are albino.Albino doesn't always mean amel.I would have to say they are probably a extreme hypo or maybe a t+ albino.I have seen and held these snakes and in no way are they hybrids.
:have fun,
