Why wont your baby Python eat?
Snakes are fussy eaters. The fact that it doesn't want to eat isn't really a cause for alarm in and of itself. If your snakes weight is still looking good and (s)he doesn't seem to be getting thinner, then there's no cause for alarm. You can try to get your baby python to eat using any of the tricks discussed in this thread: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_are_some_tips_for_getting_a_stubborn_ball_python_to_eat Split-braining pinkies is also a good way to get young snakes to eat. This process involves cutting the top of the pinky's head open so that the brain is exposed. FOR GOD'S SAKE, ONLY DO THIS WITH A DEAD PINKY. Force feeding should only be an absolute last resort. Take your snake to a vet to have this done, as it can seriously injure the snake if you don't know what you're doing. Do not ever feed live food to a baby snake. This is a method discussed in the thread I linked, but it's not really an option with a baby snake.
Where does an albino python live?
Albino snakes do not live anywhere in particular. Albino is not a species, but rather a color variety that results from a defect in a gene that codes for black pigment. Albinism can occur in most animals, including many species of snake. However, albino animals, such as snakes, rarely live long in the wild as their light color makes them an easy target for predators. The vast majority of albino snakes live in captivity.

Can a python swallow a full grown man?
Yes a reticulated python could easily eat a man. They are known to take down deer.

What food can you feed a ball python?
There are several breeds of snakes the eat fish. Most notably the Gardner snake, who usually feeds on small rodents and bugs, and will occasionally eat gold fish in ponds or little guppies. Something to remember is snakes are opportunistic and will eat what they recognize as food; As for ball python's, there natural habitat is dry grasslands of northern Africa, and that is is unlikely that a ball python would come across large masses of water that have fish. Also from personal experience and soaking my own ball python I have noticed they don't like to get there head's wet. But there is no current evidence that I have seen of a ball python Evan eating small fish, and we don't know how a ball pythons digestive system would react. In all I say you should contact your local reptile veterinarian, and ask him/her these questions. As one problem with fish is that they are susceptible to perisites, and those parasites could be transferred to your ball python, and the ramifications could be bad, but as I said, contact you local vet and see what they say about the matter.
