New Burm

ox Jul 20, 2003 09:25 PM

I just got a new burm from the show I have and I have 2 questions.
The snake came out of a breeding from to hets for albino some of the other hatchling were albino what is the possibility of this being het for albino?
He was striking at the glass and his lip seemed to have gotten caught to his fangs what I did was restrain him and unhook the lip is this going to cause any infection and if so what should I do to prevent being that it is inside the mouth?

As to question #1, he's 66% likely to be a het if both parents were hets.

As to the injury, it's hard to say. You might put some hydrogen peroxide on it -- it's nontoxic.
