Interesting albinos. Did you keep some of the young for future breeding projects? Did you find the albinos growing the same as the "normal" ones?

yes I have kept them all for the time being. They seem to be growing a same rate as the normal ones

Hi, In the book 'Sulcatas" there are two pics of white sulcatas. One is an Albino with red eyes and the photo credit says Reptile Industries, the other one is a Ivory. Pale color with dark eys. Riparian Farms.

What is it that you want to know... 'Anything' is a rather large topic.

Could we get a pic of these albine tortoises and welcome?

If I can figure out how to post the pics I will put them on here.

Hi Hotsunsets, put [img] and link of image here then [/img]
NO SPACES AT ALL.


Also, there was a discussion of Albino tortoises in another forum.
It went on for along time, alot of people though albino's were breeding projects that either went wrong, or was illegally done.

Alot thought albino's were something tested on, and has been genetic ever since.

Alot also thought it was just something in the parents genes that it caused to be albino.

I dunno, but its fasinating huh?
