Hi,

The toe Nails are more translucent... not brown that's for sure....

It's an Albino for sure.... The adults look T and this guy.... his body looks T Neg......but he has red eyes...not pink!

Time will tell.
I think they may vary a fair bit like Albino Retics...I need to hatch a few more!

Our Albino girl is a wild caught animal that has been EXTREMELY shy and slow to acclimate. Now, years later, she has settled in has bred for us successfully once. She has also laid a bad clutch due to the fact she would not let a male near her. We originally raised her to breeding size and tried to breed her to our original male and he MAULED her.... that took a long time for her to recover from. The last clutch we got from her was frustrating... she would hide from the ALbino male we were using...we got desperate and put her in with a Heterozygous male and got a small clutch. We did not make an albino and missed our odds.

The good news.... she has really settled in and now has gained great weight and does not constantly hide. She has lived with a male for the entire summer and is on line for breeding right now. She is basking like crazy and I think will be breeding in the next month. We are just finishing up conditioning her and re-introducing her to a male. I think this clutch will be the one I have been dying for!
