paradox python

[choppy]

Wasnt sure what to put this under its a ball python so I picked exotics. Some of you have probably seen it but it was of great interest to me on a scientific level as this is an albino that still has black pigmentation in its genetics. :shock: Cant explain it myself maybe one of you can though. enjoy.

What's up with it's head ? It's head looks fine. Yes the paradox albino is a strange morph, being an albino it should be unable to produce any melanin at all. Apparently it is genetic in some species but not in others.

could it be a chimera? (eg. contain some cells from a twin that didn't develop and got absorbed into this snake?). or maybe an imprinting anomaly similar to that which occurs in torteshelle cats?
