    Albino & Calico

    So here's a snake I don't post often . I bought him back in '09 when I bought my Spider and Pinstripe . My sister wouldn't shutup about this snake, and so I bought him so she can have a snake . He has fasted the same time for 2 years now which is fine . He came with some attitude but has changed so much since then. He's a late '08 albino boy ! Sorry for the bad pics.. He squirms ..




    Here's an update on my calico since she shed. I got her near the end of January and she weighed in at 140 grams. Chris Berrios wanted me to show her to him once she reaches 1000 grams, but she grew so fast that I decided to just do it once she is around 1500. She completely destroys rats and is an excellent garbage disposal ! She is by far my best eater. (thanks Chris!!)



    Enough reserves? (Fixed my cam after this shot)


    Face-off!! Flippy had a knife so I tossed some scissors into the cage to give the calico a chance!

    Good looking albino; that was the first morph I bought and I still have him! That pattern on your calico, towards her tail is cool! Be interesting to see if it colors up any or if it just stays "broken" as it looks in one of the pics. I keep looking at those but haven't pulled the trigger on getting one yet. Yours looks good and has some nice weight to her; nice and sausage like, lol! Dang it, now I'm craving bacon, lol! Thanks for sharing.

    She's definitely a low white, but since calicos can produce high whites and she eats like a pig, I'm very happy to have her

    Nothing at all wrong with that, she's a nice looking girl and frankly I prefer some of the low whites to the higher ones, depending on their patterns. She has some cool patterning going on down her sides, especially towards her tail and the white spots are just a bonus.

    I really like that calico travis. Somewhere i heard that low white calicos tend to throw higher white babies. I *think* it was on NERD's FB page. Not positive though.

    It was NERD haha. I'm hesitant to take anything they say as fact . It would be cool if it were true, but I'll see for myself ! Thanks though! I like her charcoal coloration and cool yellows/oranges !

    LOL. Well I guess technically he's my sister's, but she doesn't take him out and take pictures with him anymore . It's fine though. He's a jerk. He'll tip his water bowl when he's on paper towels, so I keep him on aspen.. My spider will do that too, so I had him on aspen and it seemed to stop them. Recently I got my spider a huge bowl that can't tip haha. I like them too much to sell them. I'm not into albinos, but he's a curious little bugger!
