Not sure if any of you noticed, but I've made a new album for baby garter pics. Seeing how excited all of you get over the cute things I couldn't resist making an album where people can see all the newborns in one. Feel free to add to it.

hey guys we need to concider mendelism.
first we have to establish that both snakes we in fact albinos, and not just hybrid, if the parents had just a wisp of color in there genes then a hybrid would result,
secontly albino to albino will not always produce an albino.
thirdly a TRUE ALBINO WILL ALWAYS HAVE PINKskin and eyes , if the eyes are not pink but are hazel or a grey golor it is a dilute , or a hybrid dilute. there are some horses that when bred to a overo colored horse and the mare is also a overo with the same resessive gene, then the resulting foal will be BORN DEAD. do not mix colors of snakes with this resessive gene it me have the same bad results.
I will try to find out more info on mendemism
hope this helps. beautiful snake!!!!

Sorry, but I disagree. Albino x albino always produces albino. However, there are other reasons for a pink eye than albino, and in those cases, you may have something that APPEARS to be albino but is not.

Secondly, you cannot have "a wisp of color" in there. The albino gene BLOCKS the color, but the color is still there.

Third, yes, there are certain genetic traits that can be lethal, which means when you get two copies of the same gene in the allele (gene pair), then the offspring will be born dead. But albino is not lethal in snakes (nor in many other genera).
