    Like Nate said, keeping an albino will be exactly like keeping any other bp. The only "special" something that I can think of is that it is a little more tricky to tell when they are going blue. This has been mentioned in other threads, but I thought I would mention it here. You MIGHT notice that the snake just looks a little "off". You won't see the normal dulling and darkening of the skin. You MIGHT see that the eyes have turned a slight lavender color instead of the normal pink. But the most obvious sign will be a very pink belly. The first time I saw it, I was concerned that the snake had somehow gotten burned.

    Hope this helps,
    Steve
