RE: I've been really good santa, this is what I want for christmas!
Ohhh, hey, I didn't understand that this snake is an extreme rarity. I just thought it was like the Rolls Royce of snakes or something. So it actually is not a snake that you can readily have, even if you're filthy rich - they're just that rare? Pretty cool that these people have her - and I do hope she breeds and her little ones carry that gorgeous coloring into subesequent generations! Then I hope one little snake slithers out of their house & makes its way over to your house to stay, all for FREE! :-)
There's an extremely rare white serval we saw at Big Cat Rescue. It was interesting to hear about him and how much people have been willing to pay for him, but BCR will not sell him for any money. I looked up his info: http://bigcatrescue.org/2011/frosty
I hope you get your skunk SOON! Then you'll have to keep posting all about it so we can see & hear what it's like to have a pet skunk! :-)
