Why albinos are ugly. *pic*

Just take a look at this picture and you will know why albinos are simply the most hideous of the corn morphs.

This is April, amel zigzag produced by Crimsonking. Thanks for nothing Mark!

The sweet soulful eye will trick you, but do not let her trick you! Take a look at the red on white action. Horribly NASTY!

And this one! So orange and red, you can't even see the darn pattern!! What's the point?! Her name is Strawberry.

This one's a freebie pic of a snake I actually like! Her name is Angel. A good luck charm. She's kinked and was given to me instead of going into a freezer.

On Vanan's computer, the red colour looks absolute insane, so I apologize if the colour doesn't look right on your monitor. Mine is more scaled to blue thus evens out red colours.

Zigzag is just that, she has a zig and a zig instead of three blotches on her back. You can partially see it at the top of April's pic.

Aztec/zigzag it's all the same thing. A pattern anomaly that may or may not be genetic.

I know what aztek was, tought zigzag was the same, just had to make sure. I juts can't see it on the pic, too close.
You have a farther shot? I do see the beginning of it, just wondering how far down her body it goes

I didn't think that the zigzag was at all that interesting about her, but here is a baby pic that shows the zigzag.

I think she's 50% joking.

She does not like albinos but I don't think ANY snake keeper could dislike those beauties!

Nice ones Katt.

Katt... I've said it before... You're crazy! The only corns I like are Albinos, snows and Ghosts. Those are all the ones my husband doesn't like either though. So you're crazy but not alone in the insanity.

Well, Katt I knew you'd take in that poor ugly amel with the horrible aberrant ziggy thing when I sent her to you. I just couldn't look at her. eeewww!
Sorry.

Hahahaha! I remember you saying you knew I'd keep that amel. She was so precious as a baby. I can't believe it's been two years already! Wow. Vanan and I both had to stare at her baby photo for a bit. It's just amazing how much they change. That li'l baby survived a trip in a plane from Florida to Seattle, then a drive to Vancouver, and finally a grueling 16 hr drive from Vancouver to Saskatchewan. I remember her looking in the delicups and going, like WOW. Check out this one. I pegged her as a keeper right out of the box.

I love corns. It's so rewarding. Hopefully in 2006 we get babies from her. Or I may not breed her at all. I've kept her all this time for sentimental reasons, not b/c I particularly care for her looks.

She has a very good personality, very sweet, very gentle. I guess you can't have something for two years and not feel a special bond, especially when you grow up it up from a baby. What a feeling of pride.
