Hi ppls,
I new here and i am just starting out collecting snakes.
Just a small question, I live in country victoria and was just wondering what the ideal temperature for a diamond python is?
And where abouts i could get a cheap 12 month old diamond from?
I am the enclosure all set up but need to know the temp.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

But it's not the first glaring contradiction.

But it's not the first glaring contradiction. | You've been keeping...2 years? You're not exactly in a position to go ripping on people who have been keeping for a few months...especially when that persons information is correct!
Maybe he should have said "southern snake" rather than "nsw snake", but the question wasn't "Where are Diamond pythons from?", it was "What is the ideal temperature for a Diamond python".
Back in your armchair.

| Where did you pull that figure from?
Same place as your head is my guess.
As for ripping into anyone, I merely pointed out the facts.
I didn't have to resort to name calling or try to discredit anyone.
The facts speak for themselves. |

Now find the part where I talk about what snakes I kept before the licencing system was introduced in 97.
