Description
This hognose snake is known as Extreme Red Albino Anaconda. It combines the Albino morph with Anaconda and has been selectively bred within Albino lines for more intense red tones. Albino is an amelanistic morph and results in the absence of melanin and produces red eyes and warm colours, while Anaconda simplifies the pattern by merging dorsal blotches and reducing side markings. Through careful selection, this snake displays pronounced red to deep orange hues with a clean pattern. Extreme Red Albino is not a separate morph but an enhanced colour variant within Albino.

Care at a glance
A good start begins with proper housing. Juvenile western hognose snakes do best in a smaller, well-structured enclosure with a stable temperature of around 25–29 °C. For adult animals, an enclosure with a minimum floor space of 60 × 30 cm or 60 × 50 cm is suitable, with a clear enclosure gradient of approximately 24–31 °C.
Keep the environment mostly dry, with a humidity level of around 30–50%. In addition, provide a localized humid microclimate, for example in the form of a humid hide.
A juvenile western hognose snake is typically fed once every 5-7 days with an appropriately sized frozen-thawed mouse.
For detailed information on housing, temperature, humidity, and feeding, please refer to our care guide on the care page.
