Hello from Georgia USA. I have just been lucky enough to get Albert, my Banded Albino Cali-King. He is going to be beautiful when he gets a little older and loses his "purple" look (he looks good now though).
I have been doing as much research as I can, but am still looking for any useful information a newbie to the hobby needs. Thanks in advance. |

His shed was complete, but in two halves. He had a blemish before and now looks wonderful. Thanks for all the great feedback.

The kings are pretty good at shedding actually- can't remember the last time one of the kings wasn't complete. |

Did he manage to shed in one piece? My king has managed this every time so far and just wondered what other peoples were like |

Yeah, he was "in blue" (even though he is red). Shed thursday and is wonderfully glossy now. Here is a pic right after the shed, hope you like it.

Yeah, he's got himself a nice little maze of tunnels, as well as "hidden" entrances/exits. He stayed in a hide (for now) last night and today.
Hard to tell since he has red eyes, but I think he might be starting to go into blue. He is rubbing his nose alot and has a very dull look to his color. |

Sounds like he's settling in nicely. Sylar has a network of tunnels running through his aspen, sounds like yours is the same |

I just got all the "furniture" in today and of course he ignored it all and went right to the bottom of the Aspen  . I guess in time he will settle down. 1 good thing is that he does not musk on me when I do handle him. I make sure he realizes I am not a threat and move really slow (really slow). He seems very interested in everything around him and likes to "explore" when he is out. |

My mountain king hid away for the first 4 or 5 months but now he's really active. I'm sure yours will be the same when he settles in |

Wow! She is beautiful, I can't wait for mine to get a little bigger. How is her temperment? How often do you handle her? Sorry for all the questions, this is my first snake too. |
