Fred: How VERY interesting!! Can we also see pictures of the parents? Are the albinos as hardy as the normals?

You are so lucky!

Although if it were me and I saw that peeking out of the shell, I'd be like... WHAT IN THE HECK?!?!?! EEEEEEEEEEEK!

LOL!

But they sure are unique, and those are GREAT photos!

Have the eggs all come from one female? Are the adults related or from the same breeder or bought at the same time from the same place?

I think the picture of the one coming out of the egg is exquisite.

Thanks, they all come from the same female.
On paper the parents are not related, but I'm not sure.

Do you know who the father is? Being a recesive gene your normals are likely hets. Both parents are.

That is what the breeders of herps in US call a color or pattern that is not the normal color. I have have milksnakes that hetergenious for hypomelinistic (reduced black). I guess what it comes down to is cute marketing by US breeders.
