My rescued pair of albino burms

I rescued a pair of albino burms a couple months back. If you aren't familiar with my previous thread, this is what they both pretty much looked like when I got them:

Crusty eyes


Damaged skin




Since I've acquired the pair, both have fully shed, knocked back a few rats, and look really great now!

This is what they look like now (male on the left, female on the right):






My male, Ace:

My female (not yet named) knocking back a rat (slightly bigger than what I would have preferred but it was all the store had):






Ate it like a champ!

You did an excellent job getting them back in shape, and you come out on top for having two absolutely stunning snakes.

I was thinking about candycorn because of the orange, yellow, and white colouration - but knowing she'll grow up and lose the orange, I'm tending away from that. I will think of something soon. My room mate has been bugging me about the same thing. She keeps asking me when I'll name the girl! haha

Re: My rescued pair of albino burms

My albino burm had skin damage almost identical to that, he has shed multiple times and it's not cleared up. Is there something special you did for it?
