That seems to have a fair bit of yellow in it. Do Amythestines normally have yellow on them?

6m = 20ft, and they reckon it could! injure a child, I reckon it could do a bit more then that. and whats with the 100kg part? lol anyone ever seen or caught a 100kg scrubby? But it is a beautiful snake, I wish something like that would set up home in my roof!!!

Did any-one see the pic of the retic at Australia Reptile Park ( latest reptile australia mag ) , now thats 6 mtrs and 95 kg's . Scrubbys don't quiet get to that size !I have rescued a scrubby that was about 4 mtrs and only about 18-20 kg . This one must be on a very healty diet or a little bit of " stretching the truth " always makes for a good story !

Me me me me me me
Although I find 100kgs bit bit far fetched. A couple of years ago I was playing with a 18 footer and she was only 20kgs.

I'm glad that they haven't just killed it. It's nice to see the story might have a happy ending.

Hey Jim, wanna go up with me and take the roof off so we can measure and weigh it?
I'd go for 4m and 10kg personally.

The other chuckle was from the neighbours "It has the exact same marking as one we removed from our chook yard 5 years ago so it must be the same snake"
