T- Albino Bairds Rat Snake !!!!

JRMelvin Aug 14, 2013 10:27 PM

After 7 clutches from my pair of Bairds I was shocked to see a little pink nose pipping out of one of the eggs. Just wondering if anyone knows if this is one of the first actual T- Albino Bairds to be produced.

Wow! If it is definitely pure bairdi, that is something special! I have not heard of T negative in that species - doesn't mean they aren't around, but just that I haven't heard of them...

.congrats...nice snake...

??? would it be T negative or positive?...just asking......my thought at first was neg would be whiter and positive would be this shade....kind of like black rats have the pink/orange shades and then the white albinos...

all just questions...

at any rate...if there are no amel bairdi out there....this is a very special snake....

good luck...congrats......the second pic looks cool...lighter even .....(I have to go look again )..

i work with tri-colored west mexican lampropeltis. some morph, some hobby, and some locale.

everyone is entitled to their options, but no one's opinion will ever change how i feel about the snakes i keep and breed.

Congrats!

I've never heard of or seen one. So even if there are others, they are probably quite rare.

Take care of that thing and let me get some hets in a couple years...

There are no Tneg Baird's on the market. If they exist they certainly have not been offered to the general public yet.
Where did you get your breeders? I think it unlikely that yours are anything other than pure Baird's since Baird's are not commonly hybridized.

looks lighter than the t albinos or hypos that are out there. Can you post pics of the parents and maybe some history on them?

I hope you keep this snake and it's parents and siblings to breed back to each other. So many color morphs have shown up and then disappeared over the years its a shame. That one is a gem. It would be great to prove it out. Keep us posted on the progress of that little beauties development. Congratulations!
