These guys are easy to keep and all you have to do is feed them well and handle them often. They are one of the most easiest pythons to keep - but to breed they are a chalenge.

They were incubated at 31c till day 47, then 29c upto day 55 when i remembered that they take 75 days + and back upto 30c for the remainder of the days.
This is the reason for the extended incubation period. My BAD.
