...that snake has a few markers of Cal king..

The longish nuchal "patch" that is evident on many Cal kings (just behind the head--imagine it on a Cal king as black)

also the "dot" in that patch (many FL kings have a straight thin line across that area making a first "band"

and as Rainer has said, the side markings seem to come down to almost make a "chain" pattern. who's to say there isn't eastern in there??

I remember some time ago before any of the nice looking albino "brooksi" there were all sorts of trials rumored to get the "ultimate albino brooksi". There were of course Cal kings that had the albino for some time then. Also there were the guys who figured holbrooki albinos crossed into the FL would be a better match(I believe they were right)for looks.

I know of one or two albinos that have popped up from wc and the only ones I am aware of were what we now call peninsula intergrades.

If those were used, then there would certainly be a different look. Much like the one you have there I expect.

Of course by now who knows? The resulting amels and hets have been back crossed so many times now it's really anyones guess in my opinion. Some, like the one I posted above are almost certainly Cal X FL.

My humble opinion.
