    My Brand new Purple Albino Retic (DUW)
    As promised, PICTURES!!! Sorry, I went a little crazy with them but you all understand. You all know the story of my search for the perfect 'tic and I found her a few weeks ago, now I've just been agonizingly waiting for her to be shipped to me and to arrive, and HERE SHE IS!!!

    She is without a doubt the most beautiful snake I have ever seen, and the most beautiful Purple I have ever seen, maybe I'm biased but so what, she's my baby already.

    I'm already absolutely 100% in love with her, and I fear my poor ball python, Zeus, perhaps may become second as favorite to her lol.

    She's so nice and mellow =) really a great little personality for being shipped across the country, super mellow and chill and very curious. She's currently chilling in her new tank getting some much needed rest =), enough of my babbling, here she is:

    Introducing Chaos (at least I think I'm going to stick with that name):

    Aaahh of course, the "still in the box" photo, my jaw dropped at this moment

    And here she is fresh out of the box

    Hey look! I can fit her in one shot for the time being!
    http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...4_602445_n.jpg

    Well there she is =) Hope you enjoyed, I know I certainly did haha. And I'd like to give a huge thank you to Rodney Boalich for selling her to me =). I definitely recommend him, he's has beautiful animals at amazing prices.

    Thanks everyone. She completely blows my mind away.

    Agreed, pictures really don't do them justice, especially when they're out in the sun.

    And I am just loving her personality, she's such a little sweetheart.

    Offered her a F/T rat last night and she took it no problem, although she just bit it, no coiling lol.

    Your snake it's awesome! :bow:
    Here we're not allowed to keep reticulated pythons, but they're beautiful!
    Lucky you, nice buy ;)

    That's so sad =(
    She is the reason I refuse to ever live in Florida, I could never give her up,
    or any of my snakes for that matter.

    Thanks!

    Even better than her looks is her personality, she's a little sweetie =3 happens to be sleeping on my head right now.

    Amazing looking reticulated!

    Do the eyes on these purple albinos have a different color then a standard albino? The eyes almost look normal compared to the pink/red of most albinos I have seen...
  • 09-16-2010, 11:25 PM
    alexOATH
    Albino Retics come in three different types of Albino as I understand it, Type one (which would be what Chaos is considered) have eyes very similar to normal retic (orange),

    Type II happens to have redish eyes,

    and Type III (blond albino) have yellowish eyes.

    At least thats as I understand it, correct me if I'm wrong, I'm still learning Retic morphs.

    And thank you.

    Love the colors on her, just i could not take care of a 20 foot Python, too much work and I don't have anyone to help me take the snake out when i needed to clean. Too Much work for the beautiful colors of Retics.

    She came from Rodney Boalich. You can find him on Kingsnake, Facebook, or Fauna.

    Sweet snake, it's funny that she's so small now and that some day she'll be an impressively large snake.
  • 10-21-2010, 01:54 AM
    alexOATH
    Haha yeah, she won't be small for long, she'll be 6-8 feet in 9 months or less.

    My mother would have killed me had I brought a cornsnake into her house.

    I had to wait until I moved out to get my first lol.

    She'll be somewhere between 18 and 20+ feet one of these days.
