[Trade] 8-9ft Female Purple Albino Retic

Ok, everyone, here's my situation:

I have worked with snakes, particularly Retics, for almost ten years. I've wanted to breed snakes basically from day one; especially retics. Well, I thought I was finally in a position to this season, but I've hit a snag. I have a 2009 Lav albino female thats 16-17 ft and 120 lbs, and my male (GC tiger) is 2.5 years old and around 11-12ft. Well, the male is not doing well (got him from a supposedly reputable company, but he's had major health issues since I bought him). So now I am in desperate need of a proven male. The female Purple Albino I'm trying to trade is really a great snake. She's very tame when out of her cage (she has somewhat cage aggression; never struck before but she's pretty quick and wirey when you get in her cage) and she is a beautiful animal. You might be wondering why I'm trying to trade her then? Well, long story short, I met a guy on this forum claiming he had proven females for sale... I paid the guy for a 15 ft normal proven female retic. Not only did I basically have to demand the guy ship the snake, he made every excuse in the book. After two weeks I receive the snake and not only is it not a proven female, but its only an 8-9ft Purple Albino. I tried to get ahold of the guy afterwards but his phone was disconnected and his faunaclassifieds account deleted, so I just went with it...

With all that being said, I am literally willing to trade her for any proven male, even if the male's value is less than that of mine, like say a tiger or even a normal. If you can provide proof that: 1) he is 100% a male 2) He has mated before and produced young, then the purple albino is yours.

I can't ship, I've never done it before, so for the safety of the animal I would rather not take that chance... I live in Wheeling, WV. I'm 45 minutes from downtown Pittsburgh, 2.5 hours from Columbus, OH, 2 hours from Cleveland, and 3.5 hours from Cincinnati. Since it would be a trade, I would meet you half way.

If you are interested, please send me a PM or text me at 304-551-2251 and I will get back to you ASAP. I'm posting the only current picture I have of her, but will gladly send as many pictures as you'd like once I have your number and am home from work (usually around 5)

I'm only looking to trade for a proven male retic, not selling her at this time. I really do like this snake a great deal, I just desperately need a proven male, and I already have a bunch of albino females around her size.

Thank you everyone for checking her out!! Take care!

PS. Sorry for the crappy picture, it's the only one I have on me currently. Like I said before though, send me a PM with your phone number and when I get home around 5 I will send as many pictures as you want and tell you all you want to know!

**EDIT**: For reference, I'm 6'6 tall, so that can give you some kind of scale of her!
