The Albino King Python, also known as the albino ball python, is a genetic variation of the ball python species. Unlike their wild counterparts, which typically have dark brown and black markings, albino ball pythons lack melanin, resulting in bright yellow patterns set against a white or pale background. This recessive genetic trait is highly sought after by reptile enthusiasts and breeders. Native to the grasslands and forests of West Africa, ball pythons are non-venomous constrictors that are known for their docile nature and tendency to curl into a ball when threatened, giving them their common name. The albino variant shares the same characteristics but is admired for its unique coloration.
