It was Egyptian compared to Kenyan sand boa. I'm not really sure where everyone stands on the sub-species standing, so I won't get into that. The initial albinos were being called "Egyptian" sand boas, but I'm not sure if they were actually from that range, or if it based on the coloration of a shipment it was in. (Many "Egyptian" sand boas were simply KSBs that were yellow, meaning a single litter could be a mix of Egyptian and Kenyans.)

There have been several WC albinos that have been brought in over time, and I cannot speak for how much of the general albino population any of the imports are responsible for.

East African sand boas are Kenyan sand boas.

West African sand boas are Saharan sand boas (Eryx muelleri)
