The Most Extensive Collection of Ball Python Mutations in Captivity

Albino

This mutation is incredible - they almost glow! Albino retics have to be the one of THE BEST albino manifestations of ANY constrictor. Albino retics appear as a luminescent-white snake with rich saffron-yellow markings. I have a very difficult time taking good photos of them of them; they cause the flash to go off, as they’re so light. We have 1.2 of these animals and the male is breeding well this year. This morph originated from Bob Clark's original wild caught sire male. There seems to be at least three different color variations among hatchlings: I’ve witnessed babies that looked amelanistic albino and some that looked like caramel albinos within the same litter. I am a bit lost with this mutation since it is so variable and the potential to breed into other phases is just beginning. A very nice mutation, to say the least; a specimen for the serious retic enthusiast!
