Last time I heard from Ben it was "I wish I could get my hands on that snake!"

If he did manage to get it I would be A) Shocked. B) Extremely happy for him.

He is in the midst of building a new facility though and I’m not sure it would be financially sound to drop $30k at a time like this. Of course, I don’t know the inner workings of Mr. Renick’s finances but from an outside perspective I’m not sure, especially when he has some fabulous lockups in the works currently!

ps- I’m going to go check Bob Clark’s site now, thanks for the heads up! If I’m mistaken I’ll make sure to come and let you all know! haha

Wow! Shows me what I get for not visiting those forums often enough! *doh!*

I’m very psyched for him with this new addition! I know we can’t expect much to be bred out within the next few years, or at least nothing that would be open to the public for sale at least.

The pictures aren’t up on his website yet but I can’t wait to see them. Apparently it looks different than Stans (the one from Kingsnake) but that could mean anything!

Thank you a dozen times over for the heads up, Alter-ego!

4?! Man, I’m out of the loop.

Last I heard Stan had 1, there was 1 I knew was out there but didn’t have tag on who owned it, and now Ben has the third I know of.

There was one I heard of that was found a while back but died in transit to the US. This might be the fourth you mentioned, but if not please direct me to where that last one is!

Ben has one stan sold his male he originally had 2 but the female died a while back. There was rumors about a -t albino out there some where but it has not been confirmed. And the other two should be adults by now. Im not going to say much becuase I dont beleive the owner wants alot of people knowing until they breed. So right now in the u.s.a there are possibly 5 albino anacondas but 4 are confirmed. I would sell my soul for one lol

You DONT know the THINGS I WOULD DO to get one!
I hope to start working with yellow anacondas in the near future then work my way up to greens... Then after I start breeding greens I eventually will move up to morphs and what not and hopefully ONE DAY I will own or produce a ALBINO GREEN ANACONDA! I wouldent mind hets !

hets should be on there way soon. Although the people that have a shot at breeding these will probably hold onto to most of the hets they have and breed them when they are older to get more albinos but im sure they will let a few go for a price that is much bigger than my wallet I bet lol
