Well, I was almost set on getting a stimmie, although after Nikki's thread and doing some research, im not sure which to get.
Just wondering some things about Bredli's:
How much would 1 cost atm?
Full grown size?
Easy to breed?
Cheers |

They get around 8 to 9 foot long and are one of the easier pythons to breed.
One would cost between $300 to $400.
Cheers

| | Subscriber | Join Date: Feb-08 Location: Melbourne Age/Gender: 35 | | | A full size adult Bredli would be happy in a 4 foot x 2 foot x 2 foot enclosure (at minimum).
If you have the room, you can go a little bigger. You can make it higher with climbing branches ect.
Although if you get a hatchling Bredli, you will have a few years before you have to upgrade your enclosure.

| Hi Armond,
Diamonds dont get much bigger the Bredlis, they both like to climb and the same type of enclosure would suit both. Quote:

| That 5 foot enclosure sounds perfect for it. house it in the tub (click-clack) for the 1st few months. Then when you handling it, getting it used to you, let it explore the enclosure also. Getting it used to the enclosure (let it explore 1 hour at a time) after a while you can leave it in there. You can get a small python used to a big enclosure and have it stress free if you take your time. Ive had 50 cm pythons living happily in a 5 foot enclosure. The trick is, DONT just dump them in there and leave them.

| | Subscriber | Join Date: Sep-07 Location: melbourne Age/Gender: 12 | | | | SO andy you reckon at around the 3-4ft mark start putting it in the big enclosure for an hour or so for around 1-2 weeks...and then place it in there full time?
Would that size enclosure be ok for a breeding pair or not?

| | Subscriber | Join Date: Sep-07 Location: melbourne Age/Gender: 12 | | | | i think it'll be OK, just i think they may get territorial with their size, in an enclosure , not HUGE.
I probably won't breed, until i get quite experienced in that area |

| | Subscriber | Join Date: Feb-08 Location: Melbourne Age/Gender: 35 | | | | If you get a pair of Bredlis, keep them seperate. Put the female in the big 5 foot enclosure. The male will be fine in the 4 foot one you have.
Once they reach 6 foot long (about 3 years old) You can put them togeather, after you have cooled them down 1st.
