There was a leucistic eastern up for sale last year but im not sure where it ended up. They wanted a lot of money for that snake. No southern leucistics out there that I know of but there was at one time some albino's. Well take care and hope this helped a little.

Was that the toad pictured in the REPTILES magazine this month? Looks similar.

Lucy W. Hogs are as far as I know illegal to own...as they came from a WC female. A pair of lucy's hatched out in 1998 out of six eggs from a wild caught female. The guy who hatched them was honest of where he got them, and so I believe all of the lucy's are technically property of the state of CO. I think I heard the Denver Zoo has quite of few of these guys as I believe that's where the collection went too when it was confiscated. They were a COOL looking snake. I remember having pics of them up on the wall at a reptile store I worked at

what was the point of taking the snakes that were in captive care just to put them in a captive zoo if they were not normals?the man hatched them from a normal? i heard he found a wc leu.?sounds like they robbed him to me.its a morph how can they clame it and give it to anyone?not to say that the zoo is not the best place,but its still in captivity.its wrong
