Or what if its a harlequin? They often have a reverse stripe. Not exactly genetic though. I certainly hope whatever that one is, it's genetic and you make more :)

Yeah, definitely sent a message to RDR, to confirm if it is in fact in his posession, and to let him know it was not sold with permission. I don't expect much to be done, as there was no written contract - lesson learned - But I do want to know where he went to.

While I'm hopeful it proves out to be something, I honestly believe it to be a freak thing. 3 eggs hatched from that clutch: 2 Albino males, and 1 het albino female. neither of the stripe's siblings had even a hint of striping out of the ordinary, and neither parents have any sort of striping. The sire is a visual "yellow headed" albino which I understand to also be a random, uninheritable trait. He was picked up from a local breeder that needed money fast to fix his rack that had burned the snake. The het albino female/dam was picked up from a random craigslist ad, for no reason other than the fact that she was a breeder sized female, that would be ready to pair with the albino immediately out of QT.

If the stripe is inheritable, or some 'het' morph, then the heavens conspired to create him. I hope this to be true, I very much doubt it is - only time will tell :)

Well, I AM a fan of Albinos and I think that little guy is smoking hot! :D I am so sorry you had to go through this. I will keep my fingers and toes crossed for your upcoming clutches and hope that another one or two pop out. :) Thanks for sharing the pics!

Oooh~
Very nice!

I dont care for albinos but that right there changed my mind quickly, that is hot:gj:

Any chance a parent is a Harley?

I've seena lot of the Harlequins, and neither parent has any sort of striping. Don't have any details on either of their parents. I know I've posted pictures of dad somewhere on this forum, but I honestly can't remember where. I'll get them off my computer with some newer photos of the stripe (the photos posted were the day after his first shed). I have some when he was closer to 500g as well, alongside a genetic stripe.

That is a great looking snake! The stripe is hott!
