Hi roland, amels (amelanotic)lack of pigment, (Lacking melanin) so yes it is a form of albino but in amel house snake all have dark eyes so there is still colour present in their eyes, albino's also lack melanin in their skin but have no melanin in eyes. Look nicely at the above pic of house snakes, the very red house (true albino) lacks melanin in skin and eyes ................simply put amels lack melanin in skin only, Albino's lack melanin in skin and eyes, hope that helps
