:Western Hognose: $50.00
:Albino Western Hognose: $1500.00

:Why?
Supply and Demand, simple economics. I can't afford a male albino or even a pair of hets. If I could, I would have at least a male because I have enough adult females that I could produce 25-30 hets in the first breeding. That would be profitable. That's why breeders will pay $1500, PROFIT!!!
They are holding their value as are ball pythons. Just read the classifieds.
