Hello, my roommate just called and insisted he was an albino bull snake.. I'm not going to argue semantics over her species of snake, I'm not an experienced snake keeper and I think nutrition is more important than what kind of snake it is right now.
Since I've only known her a year I am not sure of her care and maintenance, but I know she has not feed him often or on a schedule for a long time. Sometimes he goes a month or slightly longer without food, and is fed 2 live mice when he is fed (again it isn't my snake, although I suggested f/t because he has had injuries from live prey). She just bought two mice and a rat pup (I've heard rats offer a little more nutrition?) to feed him because it has been a month or more since he has eaten. She was looking to rehome him because she cannot give him adequate care (especially with the lack of feeding).
