I have never seen anything that led me to believe that an albino would have any shorter lifespan than any other corn.

Re: Corn Snake Morph Question...

Okay cool.
I didn't know if anything would be different with the different morphs.
But I guess there isn't really.
Thanks for all the information everyone. :]

That's what I tried to get across in my post. It's not a continual in-breeding...just done to get the desired effect and then bred outside the lines to strengthen the DNA structure again.

I've not heard of albinos having a shorter lifespan either...especially being relative to anything. Relative to what? Granted they don't live in the wild long...but it's because they stand out so well...not because of any gene that shortens their lifespan.
