    Candino ball python. Questions

    Recently acquired a candino (candy/albino) bp and it is my first albino but my question is do the eyes get the “blueish” shade to them? Or do they stay red all through out. She weighs 830g and I was told she quit eating a few weeks ago and I was just told that might have to do with fasting.

    Blue eyes usually just means they're shedding?

    As Absololol said, your animal is going in to shed. Check the belly, in all likelihood it will have a dull pinkish cast to it as well

    Agree as well. I have a Candino and his eyes get milky blue / grey when he's deep in shed.

    Candino's have dark red eyes.

    It's possible however that any ball python's eyes could come across as blue during shed.

    Here's mine in 'blue'... She is just a pastel but you can see how the mist can come off blue here
