I found an Albino Garden Snake

[BLUESIRTALIS]

From this pic i'm thinking you have another female here because it looks like a pretty good taper. Was this snake caught in the same are as it could be a possible het too!

yes I caught it in my backyard and Casper in the front. I don't know what a Het is. But I've very disappointed it's a female. I've finally got it to start eating regular and was growing it up a little so Casper wouldn't eat it cause it was so little when I found it. It's very friendly but super scared of Casper and after what casper did to her froggy friend I'm a little afraid to put it in if it's a female. Will they fight? Seriously got to get her to breeding. The clock is ticking down. I was trying to stay local just incase one from her family was around with the same gene but only found this one. I might have to go to a different field. Just quarantine takes so long. I had such hopes for this breeding. UGH! I guess I'd better read up more on breading.IMG_6299.jpgIMG_6295.jpgFullSizeRender (2).jpg

I'm not saying 100% female, but the pic i was posting about looked female. They should not fight and should get alone just fine, but you have to be careful at feeding time. I would seperate for feeding. Het means it could possibly be carrying the albino genes since it was caught in the same spot.

Very cool to catch up with Casper, have not been on in awhile. Good luck with finding a breeding size male this year. Casper looks amazing! Super nice snake.

Ok Everyone out there. I'm having surgery April 14th and I've talked it over with my Godson and together we have decided it is ok to sale Casper to someone who can help her reproduce. I don't have the time to take care of her and with the surgery I will be down 6-8 months. My Godson is turning 14 and has lost interest but wouldn't let me part with her until I told him there may be some cash in it for him. Typical kid! LOL! Anyway if you guys could get the word out to the folks interested in rare snakes I'd sure appreciate it. I have enjoyed being a part of this family and it's been a thrill taking care of Casper and watching her flourish all these years. I will miss her and being a part of this group.
Thank You everyone

That looks to be a dekays not a garter at all I've seen albino dekays and this snake pictured shares alot of the same features

100% northwestern garter! Casper is an amazing one of a kind animal the would make a great project for someone. I have narrowed my collection down to only a few species and don't work with ordinoides, but daniel is right though mike fedzen would probably be interested in casper.

Amy luck with Casper? Maybe check with Don Belnap. He is possibly the closest garter breeder to you, might have the best luck getting a male. Best of luck, let us know if he gets a new home.
