Hi guys and gals!
I have been offered a full grown ? 3-4 year old childrens python.
The people have had her since a hatchling, have children and it doesn't bite them,
how well would it go with a change at that age? Are they good with a new home?
I would be getting the viv that it has lived in so no actual house change, just owner and into our home.
Thanks for any help!!, Kerri

I brought an adult childrens and placed it with a female, and it was fine, even went from only eating live food as I was told to eating defrosted mice in 2 weeks. Havnt had a problem at all.

Hi Kerri,
You wont have a problem at all so long as your temps are high enough and the everything else is the same. Even if it wasnt you wouldnt have a problem
Good luck

Snakes don't get used to people or even particular cages, as long as all their basic needs are met they really don't care who feeds them or cleans them out.
