i can guarantee that you will get more, and the more you learning about the underlying nature of herpetology you will want to breed one.

When you start considering the ecology and conservation of our beautiful animals you will want to breed.

We currently have 50+ pythons. It was only ever going to be one but the sickness took over.

After so many years away from the hobby cos of my job, I've started again with one, but am getting more very shortly.

You'll find once you start you tend to get more.

Bluebear, it's unlikely that many will state what species and how many they have due to the recent spate of herp thefts.

I have an 85ft Gaurd Anaconda cross Taipan

So if he doesnt get you with the bite, he will get you with the strangle.

He also has arms and lasers on his freaking head
