1. I wanna say is a plain Albino. I believe the lavenders show up darker.
2. Is the snake white in person? I'd say if the snake is more yellowish in person, it's a banana. Unless your white balance is that off?
5. The pic you have higher up I believe is a coastal. I think the browning you are seeing is a product of age. My plain cali is 12+ years and has started to brown more is his black areas. His whites are still white though.



My personal favs(not in and particular order):

-Cali King
-Grey Bands
-Az Mtn King

Thanks!
Yeah the white balance is way off in those pics. It was cell phone photos.

Don't the lavenders have red eyes? Hers are very light pink.

That's a good question about the eyes. Can't say I remember noticing a difference or making the correlation between the 2 eyes looking different. So, I don't know.

Actually we have bull snakes which are closely related to pine snakes. Here is a site I like when looking for herps in MN. http://www.herpnet.net

So I really haven't handled my Albino girl for a while.
She is starting to get some size on her now and just shed the other day.

Light pinkish tint and she is getting yellow. Her eyes are a very light pink.

I hope she matches my Chocolate het Albino.

What do you think?

She looks like a regular albino instead of a lavender albino to me. I've got one very much like that that was sold to me as an albino, not a lavender.

Cool thanks!

Kings are so awesome :D

Dude, she looks awesome. :gushing a little: :)

Thanks :D
I'm very happy that I picked her up. I wish all snakes had their feeding response.

haha! yeah. Mine would probably try eating a medium rat if I let him. He's a garbage disposal and will eat anytime, any size, day/night, shed/not shed. Last couple times I fed him, he ate 2 mice, shed, ate the 3rd mouse. Wish he was big enough to eat medium rats, then I wouldn't have to hold onto them when my ball feed strikes and the rat snake isn't hungry.

And they take them down so quick :p
