Albino ball python shedding (Everyone with an albino read this please)

I just got my baby albino bal python 3 days ago.some people on this site say it looks really wierd when albinos shed. so i want to be prepaired in knowing what it looks like when they shed so i know its not some disease of the skin or something. can somone who ownes an albino PLEASE post some pics of theyer albino shedding. thanks

I wouldn't call it weird...

they just say it looks kind of peculiare.

Anyone wanna help!

Albino (Amelanistic) ball pythons don't have any melanin, a dark pigment that exists in a particular layer of their skin.

Consequently, when they shed the out later of skin, there is no pigment to show up in the shed skin. Hypos (hypomelanistic) do the same thing as well. This results in a clear shed. Skin that is shed from normal ball pythons usually have some faint dark pigment that leaves a pattern in the shed.

Its totally normal.

why are you so worried about your albino having some sort of disease?

the only reason i would be worried is if the seller gave me a reason to be worried...and when you're dropping that kind of money on a ball python, then you need to know that everything is better than great..

oh i know she 100% healthy. i just want to know what it looks like when they shed so i know there is nothing wrong in the future. shes healthy now and hopfully will always be. its just im on high alert considering she was $900 and my other bp recently had a URI. so im just being as cautiouse as possable.

The shed will look like any other normal ball python's shed, except it won't have any color or pattern to it.

Its also easy to miss retained scales on albinos...you want to make sure your humidity is on par especially for these guys so they can have good sheds.

can any one please post som pics though. (im a visual learner) hehe

I will see what I can do when I get home.
