Albino Red Corn Snake

A selectively bred corn snake (Elaphe guttata) which is amelanistic (lacking melanin, which produces dark pigmentation) but retains red (erythristic) pigmentation. This color morph is but one of many selectively bred by hobbyists, as the corn snake is a popular breed of domesticated snake.
