Awesome snake great temperament, very inquisitive. Every time I walk by his enclosure I can't resist taking him out for a 'walk'.
Has never even looked like striking me.
Fedding without fail on fuzzies
Highly recommended breeder. |

he's very cute | I didn't know they had a rep for that. I know they can be aggresive feeders.
As a multiple Jungle owner, I am very used to being tagged, but the Olive is Placid as.
Every time I go past his tank if he's near the glass he taps his snout on the glass, like 'pick me up pleeeeease'
Love the Olive |

Love the Olive | i guess i mean more bitey than a childrens python hehehhe.
or a bredli like i am getting.
it's great to see active snakes. i bet taking him out for little 'walks' all the time will be a work out on your arms when he grows up.

All my snakes get a couple of hours in the sunlight as often as I can. Have to watch them though as the bloody cats jump up on top of the wire.
My snakes are well exercised.
I know what you mean though, walking will become a problem when the Olive is bigger! |
