A friend of mine was telling me about a snake that she saw on TV. She said it was white with a pear irridencant coloring throughout. She thought she heard the guy say it was a Rainbow something, but when i showed her pics of a Rainbow boa or Rainbow snake it wasn't either of those. She said it's about a foot and half long, and was at the San Diego zoo. Any help is appreciated, if you have a pic, that's even better. Thanks!!

Nobody? Not even a guess???
Have you checked out the website for the San Diego Zoo??? Chances are they would know which species it is :D
All the zoo sites I've checked out lists the animals they keep and usually some info on them.

Thank you! I think that's it!!!
I checked out the site for the San Diego zoo and could not find any info on the types of reptiles they keep...
White, pearly? Was it a morph? Dunno of any snake which is pearly white as it's natural colour.
I wonder would zoo's keep morphs. Wouldnt that kinda be the reverse of there goal

My bad, i found out later that it was not an actual zoo specimen, but one that the snake keeper had at his house...
