Lookie what I got!

[Cflaguy]

After thirty years of herping. Walking in 90 degree heat, pouring rain, flipping boards and countless logs. Road cruising all night.
Having Butch Tencher flip a board you flipped less than 24 hours earlier and finding a patternless Florida Pine.

From the Edgewood area; Polk County Florida, along the Peace River.....

my albino Yellow Rat.......

 

[Cflaguy]

He shows some wear and tear.....

first pic isn't that good, but he has a nubbed tail and a serious injury mending nicely. A few shed and he should be good as new.....

 

[desertanimal]

Wow! Cool find! :cheers:

 

[whippet]

Awsome find...sounds like his life has been harsh, too hard to hide that glowing body!

 

[Cflaguy]

Last for now.....

Some of you better in the genetics would know....I would think if she lacked black, the blotches would be white or almost non-existant. But she is red. I like the red line near the end of the body......

 

[Suzy]

What a beauty! Congrats on finally getting it! I love those eyes so much.

 

[Sinsational]

Very interesting colouring! What a looker. Are you keeping her?

If I can get Kathy to properly sex it for me at the Orlando show next week, I'll put her (my guess) right in a program. May be to late this year but I have a large male YR. Next year??????

Craig! You know Robbie has a probably albino yellow rat, right? WC from up by Jax or somewhere. I'm pretty sure his is a male.

I mean, the snake is albino. It's a guess that it is a yellow rat.

Sounds like a plan! Bill said he would like to photo it, too. He has photo'd other amel yellows, but since this is a w.c., it should be totally unrelated. Of course, that means it COULD be a different gene than the other captive lines, although it will probably prove out to be the same.

I know Robbie had one yes.....

maybe we can hook them up as well. But eventually I'm gonna cross with a corn.

It is a Yellow Rat no doubt.

Sounds good Kathy, I'll bring "it" next week.

That is too cool!!!

 

[Susan]

Absolutely gorgeous! How something that brightly colored was even able to survive without being eaten to the size it is is truly amazing!

 

[El Jefe]

Lucky catch. Never found an albino yet...someday.

 

[Rich in KY]

Sweet find! It is gorgeous!
