Im pretty sure I'm going to get the 2 foot long baby burmese i saw at the petstore sometime this week. This albino looks much different from the albino adults i see. The adults are usually much more of a dull yellow and white, not very distinguished from eachother. This one, is much more defined and brightly colored with bright yellow, white and orange. I was wondering if as it got older, would the markings start to fade and get duller like all the other ones i've seened? If so, how long usually untill that starts to happen?

All baby albinos have deep orange colors that will almost certainly fade to different shades of yellow over time. Usually within the first year or two they lighten markedly and by the time they are 9 or 10 feet they are almost solidly yellow and white combinations.
