When I was talking to Louis Kirkland about purchasing my albino - that was an observation that he also made.

And together we wondered if albino's show scratches more easily because of this thinner skin (or it could be just because they're so light).

In any case, I decided I wanted my boy switched to f/t for this very reason - the thin skin and small insignificant scratches showing up more on albino's.

He's been eating f/t like a champ!

Once I got him, I could feel the difference between him and the animals that have melanin.
