    Hi,

    What day are the eggs on and what are the temps? I don't know enough to help you but the info might let others give better answers. :)

    Albinos look white and yellow in the egg. You can almost always see the yellow pattern if looking at the back of the snake. If you only made a very small hole in the egg and can't see much, it's possible that you might only be looking at the belly which is white. What do the scales look like?

    Yes it can look white if you are early cutting eggs. I had it happen this year when I had two thermometors malfunction and dropped temps in my incubator. I cut on day 54 and had a white snake with no pattern. That clutch went 62 days and color and pattern did gradually come in more and more every day.
