Hi BW,

Further to my previous reply, I've just reread the thread. There's some very detailed info about some of the reported deleterious effects of albinism in animals at large, but nothing specific to snakes.

I'm by no means discounting the evidence, but at the same time I wouldn't assume that, for example, a health problem that shortens the average lifespan of a person with albinism will have the same effect on an albino boa. We all know how different the biology of reptiles and mammals is.
