Caramel Albino

Gene

Caramel Albino is a recessive ball python gene that reduces dark pigment and gives a caramel and yellow look with red eyes. A snake needs two copies to show it. Visual Caramel Albinos are reported to have spinal kinking and reduced fertility in females, which is why many breeders avoid the gene.

How Caramel Albino works

Ball pythons show Caramel Albino only with two copies. One copy makes a het, which looks normal but can pass Caramel Albino on.

Ball Python Care: Setup, Humidity, Feeding, and Shedding

A ball python spends most of its life doing very little, in a warm dark place, waiting. That is not a defect. It is a west and central African ambush predator that hides in rodent burrows and termite mounds through the day and comes out at dusk, and most good decisions about its care follow […]

How Long Do Ball Pythons Live? Lifespan, Aging, and Records

Ball pythons commonly live 15 to 20 years in captivity, and some live longer. Merck gives that planning range, while the Royal Veterinary College says up to 25 years.
