albino kingsnake

[ssshell]

i am looking into purchasing a baby female albino kingsnake, what is the average price? how big do they get? and where could i find a good canadian breeder? thanks for any help!!!

I' assumming you are talking about California Kingsnakes. They get approx 4-5 feet usually. Average price anywhere from $40 - $100 CDN for a baby. They can be abberrant (crazy kings), striped, banded or 50/50 banded. The normal banded would be the cheapest & a really nice striped the most. You can also get Snows (almost all white with 1 very faint stripe if any) or Lavenders (purplish with ruby red eyes, instead of the pinkish white with pink eyes) which are around $80 for Lavenders or around $80-$150 for a nice Snow.
A good place to find a breeder is here on ssnakess or at a local Herp society or one of their shows. Cheers Mark
P.S. there are also lots of types of Florida Kings too maybe someone else can elaborate on them (prices for morphs etc.).

Paradox Lavender albino ????
Albino (T-) rare. $100-300

Pretty soon, you'll start to see more multiple morph combos available in the floridana complex. These are my favorite kings and have been for over 10 years now. They get big, they always eat, and they are calm and gentle. Prices above are U.S.
