Blue-eyed albino Californina Kingsnake

dleeroach Nov 24, 2004 09:51 AM

I just received this guy today as part of a trade for another snake. The paperwork states that his mother was a lavender, and his father was a blue-eyed albino. I've looked all over, but I can't find any information on the blue-eyed albino CA king. Does anyone know what that is, or is this a common name for another trait? If you have a lavender CA king or a blue-eyed albino, I'd love to see pics. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks! -David

try lookin at leucistic animals. Many leucistic snakes are pure white with black or blue eyes.

That is a lavender calking. Its similar to a hypo cal king. That snake is het for lavender albino if its father was albino lavender.

The blue eyes come from the mother who is lavender.
