What is the difference between sunglow and albino

Love my kingsnake and now I am ready to get a boa. I think I like the sunglow coral morph. Question, after looking over this it feels like 9th grade biology, and I forgot it all. I tried reading up but my days of learning are far past.

What am I looking for in a sunglow coral? Het or hypo? Login to remove ads. A coral Sunglow is a hypo Kahl Albino, coral is a line of Kahl Albino that is suppose to be brighter. A het animal means it carries both the recessive and dominant gene for a trait. Meaning if you breed two het for albino which will look normal babies a percentage will be albino and the rest will be het for albino they carry the gene but look normal.

When these lines are bred against each other they throw all normals but bred to themselves give the albinism trait. To answer your original question your looking for coral Sunglow. I believe there are a few on morph market but I would make sure my hearts set on a coral Sunglow vs a Sunglow.

Looking at a Groovy coral albino today. As long as he looks good, does any of that matter? Don't plan on breeding. She looks good. Breeder told me her orange patterns should get more orange as she ages.

Thread Tools. Or post a picture of the snake here and I or someone else can probably tell you. For sure! I agree to all that was said before. I also doubt a little on the morph. She is a little pale on this picture because she was almost shedding. The difference between sunglow and normal albino is the hypo gene which makes the color a little softer. She has almost soft pink eyes. If you do deside to get her, give her a serious quarantine period in a separate room and try to avoid handling any other snakes after you handled her during that time.

The new snake I handle as last one in the day so before I touch the other snakes I had a shower and changed clothes. Idk what happened with them but once I got in touch with the owner to ask questions she disappeared along with the ad.

I have a feeling it belongs to one girl, but the roommate posted the ad without the owner knowing. Told her about the ad and she disappeared along with the ad.
