Even after being offered 100 million VND for raising albino snakes, the owner still hasn't agreed.

Despite owning a snake that is entirely white with red eyes and tongue, measuring over 2 meters in length and weighing over 2 kilograms, and attracting offers of 100 million VND from wealthy buyers, Mr. Pham Van Diep from Kim Son district (Ninh Binh province) is still unwilling to sell it.

According to Mr. Diep, the snake belongs to the species known as the rat snake, also called the long-tailed rat snake, long-tailed rat snake, or rat snake. Unlike other snakes of the same species which are light brown, his snake is an extremely unusual albino white color.

Speaking about his special snake, Mr. Diep said: "About four years ago, while checking on hatching snake eggs, I discovered this unique white-bodied snake. Seeing its unusual color, I separated it and took care of it. Now, the snake has grown to a mature size and weighs 2 kg."

"Recently, many people have become aware of my family's snake farm, including many wealthy individuals who have come to inquire about buying snakes. Many have offered high prices, around 100 million VND, but I don't want to sell them. I intend to keep them for research and breeding," Diep revealed.

According to Mr. Diep, compared to other snake species, the care and feeding regimen for this albino snake is not much different; they mainly still prefer to eat toads, frogs, and other similar creatures.

Speaking to reporters, Mr. Pham Minh, a snake farm owner in Hanoi, said: "I've raised snakes for many years, but I've never had the opportunity to breed and raise this species. This is a very valuable species; even selling it for 100 million VND would be too cheap."
