I found an Albino Garden Snake

Can't believe I missed this thread! I read through the whole thing and really want to thank you. You have the ONLY albino northwestern in captivity in the world! And by the looks of it, you're taking superb care of her. Really nice to see that the little girl is in good hands. Do you have plans to allow her to breed in the future?

Wow she's beautiful! She looks like she's gotten considerably bigger since your original post. Very nice find

She is getting very large and agressive almost 10 months old. I wonder what would I breed her with to get more albino possibilites. She is longer then a 10 gallon tank and bigger then my index finger round. very strong too!!!

Good to hear things are going so well. I don't know a lot about breeding Northwesterns but would guess she's got another year or more before she can start breeding.
We would love to see some updated photos if you don't mind.

There was another up until a month or two ago but that one escaped. That one was found late last year in Kent, WA. Two found in the same year is just unheard of. Normally one pops up about every 25 years or so.

Something's striking me as very strange. The growth you've gotten out of that snake is just unheard of for a northwestern. I've never had one grow that fast. Hmmm...

I feed Casper Canadian Night crawlers and ocasionally dip them in a little Zoo med Reptivite w/D3 just lately I've been trying to add a little chop or two of pinkie mixed with the worms but she doesn't like the way it smells or eats around the pinky bits but I know she's getting a little in her cause she has a mean appetite immediately after she sheds so she eats like a wild beast anything on her plate. LOL! I took a look at the one up in Kent Wa. would have been great to breed her with his. Too bad it got away. It had a lot of brown on it, Casper is pretty white all over except the yellow stripes. She always eats big right after a shed and then tapers off 3 1/2 weeks later so she has been shedding pretty much every month to month 1/2 I'll have to look it up on my calender I mark it every time she sheds. What do you think about breading her with a albino checker do you think the checker would over power the plain albino? Wish you lived closer so you could meet her and evaluate her in person.

Wow Casper's looking good!

That's what I was thinking
