If you never noticed it before, then yes, it just molted. All roaches are white (as you describe, literally white) for a period after a molt. If a roach were actually albino, I'm sure it would be from the moment it hatched.

I know people with albino cats, not worth any more than a normal cat, unless you have a purebreed.

Well i could say that i have an albino b.budia but it is only 2inches. I spot it when feeding today and he started to eat also which means that he has harden up and will stay "albino" until he molts again. It is not albino but very very light brown i try and get pics
