Southern African house snake??

I am thinking about getting a southern african house snake. The one im getting is a 66% het for albino. The guy (breeder) im getting it from wants to sell it for $45. Is this a good price?? It looks very healthy. They are also supposed to be fairly easy to breed. The thing that got me interested was its pattern. Its bright red with yellow stripes around its head area. He has 5 males and is going to get females sometime soon. So is $45 a good price or should it be cheaper?? ANY INFO WILL GREATLY BE APPRECIATED!! THANKS!!!

I didnt know those came in albino. Id say it is a good deal, however im not at the top of the house snake circle. I thought those would cost more.

Make sure it is well established on F/T prey before you buy it. House snakes are extremely hard to get started feeding as babies. They breed easily but it is very difficult to establish the babies, Mark
