phone number at home. I'll check if it's still good and see if Todd will let me give it out. Todd Smith and Glenn Fankhauser were partners (maybe they still are) as Y Knot Reptile. They used to be listed on kingsnake.com, but I don't see it anylonger. I have an old business card. Did you receive that e-mail I tried sending through kingsnake and then you gave me your addy? Neither Todd nor Glenn have posted, that I know of, on the forums that I usually browse. They posts ads on the classifieds. Todd doesn't have the breeders or any of the offspring anylonger according to Glenn who just e-mailed me last week answering a question of mine on them. Glenn mentioned he'll have normals now since he likes the normal Bairds better anyway. Just his personal view. You should have my addy on the e-mail if you got it. I don't think anyone has ever nailed down the locality on the Bairds that went to Europe and came back albinos. If you get my drift. I also remember the SUPPOSED cross being labeled a Yellow rat snake for the amel gene as opposed to a Black rat snake. Quite frankly from my view, breeding an ALBINO baird to sell the first albinos and hets was good for that purpose. I really never thought they looked that good when put next to some of the normals that I've seen posted on this forum. Your bairds Shaky walk all over the albinos I've seen. I'd buy a pair of your offspring over a free albino baird anytime. If someone likes an albino Baird, then by all means get one. I'm just saying they don't look that nice to me.

:Is it possible to convince this "Todd" to post somethng about them online? I don't know the guy, and I dont want to really even question his veracity, but wouldn't it be great to figure out the actual locality of these guy's ancestors.
:Wow! To pin down where these came from could really stir some interest.
:I know I am excited about it.
:Amels aren't at all what I am after, and in fact, neither is the "hypo," but new bairdi morphs are almost unheard of thus far.
