albino ball python
Ball Python morph
Care matches Ball Python — see the full guide for temperature, UVB, diet and enclosure details.
What is a Albino Ball Python?
Amelanistic — all black pigment is absent, leaving a bright yellow-and-white pattern with pink-red eyes. One of the original ball python morphs and a recessive 'starter' classic.
- Genetics
- Simple recessive — two copies required to be visual; het carriers appear normal.
- Typical price
- $100–250 (single-gene visual)
Lacking dark pigment, albinos can be more light-sensitive; provide shaded retreats and avoid harsh basking glare.
Husbandry is identical to a standard Ball Python — temperature, UVB, humidity, diet and enclosure are all the same. Only the appearance (and price) differs.
