|  | Regular Member | Join Date: Feb-07 Location: Sutherland Shire Age/Gender: 17  | | | Are Stimson's and Spotted Pythons a Subspecies of Children's Python?
Uh, yeah, just like the title asks. How are they different? Are they subspecies of the Children's Python?
I did use the search, but there's nothing black and white written in the forum that it could find.
Thanks for any help, |

| | Regular Member | Join Date: Feb-07 Location: Sutherland Shire Age/Gender: 17 | | | So how do you tell the difference between a Stimmie, a perthensis a Mac and a children's? Coz, to be honest, right now if you had them all in the same tub I probably could not tell them apart.  |

|  | Sponsor | Join Date: May-04 Location: Pilbara Region W.A. | | | | It must be said that in the wild it is extremely rare for different species to cross even if they occupy the exact same area i.e. stimsons and pygmys. Furthermore there is no evidence so fart that if the example mentioned did cross that the offspring would grow up sterile or not. |

All I know is perthensis are very small. That said if they were all the same size, I'd be scratching my head with you.LOL | |
