    Very nice. :gj:

    You're albino shed because they will still shed even when fasting. They don't usually grow much/at all during fast, but they still need to shed to get a new layer going. I'm sure there is a more scientific reason but basically they still need to replace their skin/scales even if they are no longer growing. It's why adults will still shed even if they are growing at an extremely reduced rate.

    Very nice looking snakes, especially the albino! Nothing wrong with having favorites, my male normal is my favorite in my collection. ;)
