This is Marcus from Louisville, KY.

I feel the same way about T positives. I do not see why they are considered albinos either. Maybe it is just that they have similar genetics at work with one affecting the melanin production to a lesser degree than the other or in a totally different way than the other. I am no genetics buff and I have never saw a T pos in person but just by looking at them I would not think albino. Not even the red eyes would have me think albino because I have calico mice with red eyes.

Listening to myself talk I can see why they could be considered a form of albinism. It is confusing to me but whatever the case may be they are still some beautiful snakes.
