Gene

Rainbow, also sold as Rainbow Albino, is a recessive ball python gene that reduces dark pigment and gives a clean, light look. A snake needs two copies to show it. Bred to a normal, every baby is a het that looks normal.

How Rainbow works

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

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. Much older animals are documented, but an exceptional record should not become a promise attached to every hatchling. Create a free ball python profile so age […]

Ball Python Feeding and Shed Log: Record Events Without Guessing the Cause

A ball python feeding and shed log is most useful when it records events without guessing their cause.
