(all of my my colubrids are too slithery and too fast to take pix of outside of their tubs. maybe when they get older nad put on size, they can calm down a bit.)

cutie!

Colubrids are fun to watch.
(not even sure what I did all day before I had mine to fuss over.)

There will be a BP in the future, at some point, but a corn won out for the next snake.

all of mine can take mice fuzzy, but I'm feeding all of my f/t pinkies. once they get up to the size of feeding on hoppers, I'm moving them to a bigger tub where they can climb. they fun to watch but are a handful to... handle as babies. so flighty.

Cool looking snake and great pics!

I'm jealous, my husband's albino milk snake is the one in the house most likely to have shedding issues.

Sprinkles is kept in a 6quart latch box with lid, not in a rack. i just follow the same procedure as with my BP's and bump up humidity when i notice my colubrids are in shed. i had damp moss in her tub previously, but forgot to add it for this shed after her last clean and her she'd still came out in 1 piece. i plan on moving her to a bigger tub once he has the girth to take larger prey (i.e. hoppers).

what enclosures furniture does your Albino have? i've always noticed their sheds pinned against something, like the used a hide to squeeze between to shed. in the above pix u can see she squeezed up and between the log hide to shed.

they're great, less picky eaters than BP's. mine eat f/t fuzzier and f/t pinkies. i can feed them in tub. they poke their head from a hide, snatch a pinkie or fuzzie from my tong, pull it into the hide and reemerge not a minute later for more food. I can actually hold Sprinkles and lower her head down onto the 5-6 pinkies i put on top of her igloo and she will snatch them up 1 by 1. it's the only time she's calm in my hands. other times, she and my other Milk Snake (Cupcake) are really squirmy and thrash about when held. they're fast and always trying to escape my hands. in tub, they're cool. they hide, slither around, climb and burrow. :gj:

Also these ones don't bite and lucky for me do not musk. :)
