Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

The Pink-Eyed Leucistics show up ocassionally in the clutches of Leucistic Texas Ratsnakes. There are usually only one or two in any of the clutches that i have witnessed.

Nope. The pink eyed animals are albinos. The only pigment a leucistic can lose from albinism is in it's eyes.

WRONG!
A pink-eyed leucistic is an albino LEUCISTIC animal, otherwise, the snake would just be a regular albino Texas Ratsnake with a visible pattern. They are NOT just regular albino's. However, the only visible difference is seen in they eyes only, but they are definitely albino AND leucistic at the same time(double homozygous).

Right, that's what Evan stated. That is why he wrote that the only pigment that changes when you add the albino gene in the mix is the eye color.

After reading it again, I figured that's what he meant, but he really didn't make it clear to the original poster that they are both albino AND leucistic snakes. Yes, we are now on the same page on this..LOL!

A funny thing,..........I bought a leucistic pair at Daytona, one of each sex from separate vendors. A while back, I noticed a funny deep ruby coloration from the male's eyes, I thought I was just seeing things from a funny angle. Well, last week I saw the weird coloration again, and went and got a magnifying glass, lo and behold, it indeed has deep ruby-red eyes!. From others I have seen, the pink eyes are much lighter and more pronounced, also some others I've seen have pink iris's as well. Mine has regular(as leucistics go) light colored iris's, and the eyes are so deep ruby colored they're hard to make out unless you really take a good close look,......very strange!,...but I'm pretty happy about it nontheless.
Anybody else have any feed-back on the extremely deep ruby-red, basically blood-red eyes on a leucistic Texas???, I'm sure the vendor I got it from had no idea whatsoever that it had red eyes, the price reflected it as well.
best regards, ~Doug

This is very old but i thought itd be better to bring it back instead of starting a new one, has anyone tried breeding the pink eyed albino lucys to a regular albino to see if the hatchlings come out albino? It would prove the theory and plus youd have some albino het lucys, price tag would be a little higher than the reg het lucy correct? Or is the pink eyed lucy not as popular/favorable?
