That is indeed the case in Europe. Here in the States, it is rare to see either. The normals are also pretty drab looking. No rea pattern to speek of and the coloration is just brown. Dont get me wrong, even in normal form they are awesome lizards to keep but the leucistics ae much more attractive to the eye.
For the record, I like the look of normal burms over albinos. LOL

Meh, I still prefer the normals, they just look more natural to me. Then, I haven't seen one of these in person yet so that may change.
You know, maybe you could just give me a couple of each, that would solve the problem nicely..
I agree, I much prefer normal burms..

If everything goes right this season, I would say by late summer we may have a few available if we do not hold them all back again... LOL

That might be what we do. LOL. Depends mostly on sex ratios.

Re: One of the Leucistic kingorums we hatched.
One day, I would like to have one, even a normal.
Give it a bix 8x4x4 and watch it run around.
