Have you seen a white beautiful snake before? This
Leucistic Texas Rat Snake is a lovely lady in white. She
gets her coloring and the “leucistic”
element of her name
from a condition that results in a lack of all pigmentation,
rather than just melanin which appears in albinism. This is
why her eyes are of normal color. Texas Rat Snakes are
(obviously) found in Texas as well as in Arizona and
Louisiana. They are non venomous so a bite will give you
little more than a sore leg. Another pic below
