We just imported this guy from Guyana.
Hope you like.

I got a call from our Guyana supplier. HE said he had an "albino" "Cooks" as they call them down there.
I was skeptical, because I have seen many "albino cooks" and none were.
He sent me the worst photos imaginable, and I was even more skeptical about it. It didn't look like anything special at all, and much less albino. I could only tell if I looked closely in highly pixelated blown up pictures, it has pink and green on white or yellow? I passed anyways. He offered it to me at a very expensive price. I passed. He then mentioned a shipment of other animals and I said ok send it, and send the ATB so i can see it. If it is nice and different, Ill pay you the money for it.If it isnt we will come to an agreement on price? So he agreed, and sent the shipment. Once I unpacked it I was floored! I have never seen one like it with these colors?Enjoy the photos..

that's a really neat snake. is it for sale?

Neat looking Ammie!

I would say definitely not an albino, but it seems to be a very cool paradox at the least. The best hope is that it could possible be some sort of calico. I'd watch to see how it develops and hopefully you can breed some calicos out of it..... it looks too small to sex, but if you have is it a male or female?
