    This was intended to just be an update. (DUW)

    But since Albert has such a unique personality, he decided to inform me of what he though about my little photo shoot.

    After taking a couple of pictures, he finally decided to hold still for a minute. I was so excited that he was holding still, I failed to realize that it was because he was leaving me a present.



    As for the update: After a year of tearing out my hair to figure out how to get him to eat, he is eating regularly now. He is starting to put on size finally and his colors are looking great. I am so excited that he is doing so good, he has eaten every meal offered for over 3 months now He is a yearling now and about 32" long, I'm not sure what he weighs though. He is about as thick as a large mans thumb.

    I think it is funny that they have a reputation for eating everything and Albert has been my problem feeder, while my Pythons have never even looked like they might refuse a meal.

    Ahhh, Albert! So adorable!

    I've not had any problems with my albino cali kings eating, my Skittles (a little over a year old now) is on small rats now.

    And the two babies are adorable. They sleep under the paper towel, but when I open their tubs, little heads pop up from the edges and look at me like "do you come bearing mice pinkies by chance???"

    Glad Albert's finally eating well for you!

    Yea, the carpet was a pain to clean up and it stunk. But it could have been a Burm or a Tic, so I guess I got off easy. lol.

    His colors are amazing, but I cannot ever seem to get the right lighting for the camera to capture them. I really need to try a building light tent of some kind. His yellow is getting brighter with every shed and whats crazy is he still has the lavender appearance.

    Anyone elses Albino still look lavender after a year or so of age?

    Somewhat but not as much. This is what Skittles looks like - this picture was taken in November by Freakie_Frog









    Here's a picture of little Starburst (I don't have any pictures of Juicy Fruit yet)

    Ha! I finally got a somewhat decent pic that shows his colors.
    He's just so bright, it's amazing.



    I will have to play with some settings and see if I can activate manual focus. Or maybe I will just have one of my friends with a nice cam come over and do a photo shoot

    And BTW, your kings look Fantastic Rabernet! I really like your stripped (skittles I think). Thanks for sharing
