    Question Albino shed- question....

    How do you tell and Albino is going into shed, do they get dull? I know the eyes couldnt turn blue.... do they get hazy? This is just something Ive trying to been thinking about but not owning an Albino(well at the moment) Ive been wondering. Anyone care to elaborate for me? Im expecting they just get kinda dull.

    They get very dull and pink on the belly like all Ball Pythons.

    They actually get more pink in the white areas as well.

    Here is a photo comparison.

    Dull color, pinker in the white, and blue-ish haze over the eyes.

    Here are photos of the same snake before and after shedding, in case a lighter photo helps:
