Description
The Albino Honduran Milksnake is a captive-bred reptile for the intermediate to advanced keeper seeking a vibrant, manageable colubrid. This amelanistic morph displays stunning white, red, and orange banding and is known for its generally docile temperament. We added this specimen to our catalog in summer 2025 and source it from a reliable breeder with consistently positive customer feedback.
Stand-Out Features
- Striking Amelanistic Coloration: Pure white, bright red, and orange bands create a high-contrast, clean appearance without black pigment.
- Proven Captive-Bred Lineage: Acquired from a trusted breeder, ensuring predictable health, temperament, and genetics.
- Ideal Intermediate Snake: A manageable size and typically calm disposition make it a great step-up from beginner species.
- Consistent Feeding Response: Readily accepts pre-killed frozen/thawed rodents on a regular schedule.
- Classic Milksnake Activity: Display-oriented and active during dawn/dusk, but not overly nervous.

Your Questions Answered
Is this snake handleable?
Yes. Albino Hondurans are typically docile and tolerate handling well once acclimated. Allow a week to settle in after arrival before attempting to handle. Support its body fully and move calmly.
What setup do you recommend?
A secure enclosure with a thermal gradient is essential. Provide a humid hide for shedding, a warm basking area, and plenty of snug hiding spots. Aspen or coconut husk bedding works well. Maintain humidity around 50-60%.
How often should I feed it?
Feed an appropriately sized frozen/thawed rodent every 7-10 days for a juvenile/sub-adult. Adjust prey size to be slightly wider than the snake’s midsection. Adult snakes may eat every 10-14 days.
