They are cheaper but you find the older and larger they get, their pattern starts to fade, though there is always exceptions whereas the stimmie will keep a bolder pattern that doesn't fade out. Both are great snake. Children's always look speccie as babies i just don't really like the adults colouration. On saying that I keep both

Here a bright girl and a duller standard type boy.

Childreni are generally cheaper. Mine cost $150

Nice stimmi yommy - blotches look like they leave pencil lines. I can't wait for trueblues new stimmi's to come out. They look like mini bredlis

All Rob's phases QLD, NT and WA are awesome and priced well. The WA's are defineatly on the list hopefully this year when available. Can't go wrong with Antaresia anyway.
I've seen both go from the 100 through to the 250 mark, it's all about what you think it's worth at the time.

$10 more then the average. As long as you think his great, it doesn't matter, it's a good looking snake anyway. TLC and it will thrive after the 12 month mark you can't stop em powering along. Best of luck.

Yeah, I saw the photos of his pencil line stimmi's. I don't know where the thread has gone but interested next time he has some for sale.

My understanding is that stimmi's have large blotches hence the alternate name of large blotched python. The only exception to this is the south Qld locality, which looks similar to blonde macs. NT childreni tend to have small blotches and sometimes speckles that tend to fade away with time.

Give the AHS organisers a call. They can confirm things for you. nKeep us updated.

In either case, she's a nice snake.
