His eyes are pink. He is white with a very faint lavender pattern. Here is Michale Joliff's:

My guess is that it is a combination of leucistic and albino. The leucistic could delete all or almost all color from the skin, and the albino would turn the eyes pink.

No, both of his parents are white-strain albinos also. Here is Michale Joliff's:

I think Paul is right,
could be the parents are albino het leucistic

No, both of his parents are also white-strain albino blk rats aslo

That is high orange. A very nice looking snake, male going on 2.5 years of age so he is holding his colors very nicely!! I do not think he will fade with age, as he has just gotten more orange with time!
Enjoy

I think that what you have there is a Black Rat Snake that is both amelanistic and anerythristic. It is not a simple "Albino".

According to Dwight, his mother was a normal albino and his father was het albino.
Here is the mother...

And a pic of his father...

Ill have to ask him at the reptile show tomorrow.
