    EDIT: I should really learn to read first. I think you have a het albino on your hands.
    Do you see something that I don't? I'm not too familiar with boa genetics at all. Both mom and dad are het albino and thus albinos are always born each year they are paired. Is there something visually about this lil guy that shows him to be het albino?

    I know people are going to give me some "poop" for this, but I think the eyes of het albino BCI's are a little bit different when they are younger. I'm not the only boa owner to think this is the case.

    Yeah I did a lil research, apparently the top half of the eye is the part to look at...if it is lighter than the skin right next to it, it signifies het albino...?

    I know theres a chance that he is granted both parents are Het for Albino and some of his brothers and sisters were born albino.

    That only really works for young boas as the colors change over time. Another clue that isn't proof but maybe an indicator is a random white scale somewhere. I think yours has the right eye color for a het though.
