Albino Everything's

[MrBredli]

Ok, so there's Darwins, Olives, Maccies (1), Beardies & Blueys.. are there any other albinos in Oz? Also does anybody know what sort of numbers of albino Beardies & Blueys are currently in captivity?

[Spike14]

Albino red belly (caught by Wal Merideth)
Albino shinglebacks (according to memphis tank)

As far as I know there was only ever 1 clutch of albino beardies survive which Splitmore was looking after. This was a long time ago though so they may have grown & produced since, I have seen possible hets for sale so I assume so.

those albino beardies make me want to spew, but i havnt drunk enough yet, maybe if we lose to brazil :lol:

 

[kwaka_80]

yeah me to Im really stuck on the thought that albino is a disability... some albino animals look cool (albino carpets etc.) but in the wild albino never survive, we had an albino girl go to my school but she died at the age of 16, just because along with being albino she was also low on immune systems, not sure about that being a direct link but i wouldnt put it past it

 

[Retic]

Well there's albino Burmese, Balls, Boas, Kingsnakes, Cornsnakes, American Ratsnakes, Gartersnakes and loads of others I bet :lol:

 

[Minhawali]

There's an albino Hosmer's Skink at Adelaide Zoo.
Apart from the Albino Eastern Bluetongues at ARP there is an albino Blotched Bluetongue in Tasmania and a friend of mine has an albino baby Eastern Bluetongue.
