| Most snakes including boa and pythons are missing the color sensitive cones in the retina to perceive color. Despite (most) snakes being colorblind, several owners have found that some snakes seem to prefer one color food item over another. Perhaps it is one shade of gray over another? | |

| That's odd. My snakes generally think the white rodents are less frightening. The black ones are like a huge shadow looming. | |
