Well I've been trying to get this little guy here for sometime now and finally got him!! He's an Albino Speckled King! You ask what make's him so great well I'll tell ya! He's BLIND that's right Blind!! After feeding him he will still bite at anything that touche's him but not hard enough to break the skin! I know, how do I know he's blind?? You can hold a mouse in front of him and he can't hit it to save his life also he has been seen biting himself on occasion after smelling a mouse in the feed tote! Anyway he's a yearling and I've had my eye on him for sometime!! Also his temperment is great!

Poor little poopy. At least he eats and he looks great! they don't use sight for much other than feeding I don't reckon. it'll suck though if he becomes a bad biter when he's bigger...

It is known that albino snakes have extremely poor eyesight compared to normally colored individuals of the same species.
I have noticed kingsnakes having an even harder time at it, especially albinos.

I've got a blizzard corn that has impaired vision. Luckily for most captive snakes, vision is not an absolute need.
Entropy,

Dang, poor little thing...
But he's got a home now so that's good!
As for the different morphs having poor sight, I didn't know, but I guess I learned something ..
