My first BP - albino pastel

I've been lurking here a few weeks reading up. I got my first BP about 2 months ago. He's an albino pastel. He was a little defensive the first 2 weeks, but he soon calmed down. He eats frozen and live, adult mice and rat pups. He was about 170 grams when I got him. He's up to 212 now. Eating once a week. I plan on sticking with F/T rats.

He is great looking. I love the contrast on him. Despite me not being a big fan of albinos, these little guys are starting to grow on me.

Keep us updated!

Great looking Lil guy. Love the contrast!

Awesome snake!!!

That is a beautiful looking snake. Reminds me of the first python I ever held!

Thanks for the kind comments. He has been great. He built up my confidence so much that I decided to get a rack system last month... :rolleyes:

He looks nice. What are your plans for him?

I'm new to snake keeping. I've read a little about breeding, but that seems way over my head right now.
So, no plans for now. Maybe just a weekly snake race with his rack-mates.:D
