    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.
