On the upcomming Crocodile Hunter diary they are going to show a water python that has latched onto a young keepers head. It will be interesting to see how they get it off.

Thought I saw this on the news about a month ago. They used a plastic spatula to prise it's jaws off. They were worried it might grab him on the face.

Water pythons are under rated. Mine were snappy when I got them as yearlings but are just large puppies now. I've even used the largest as a petting snake at the SA pet expo.
As for the colors, have a look at the photo I posted in the thread "it's a boy"

Hey Fus
mine's a funny little thin, in her enclosure - goes balistic at anything that moves - outside she's a cutie! - only 6mths old but a great little snake.

I have a pair of 3 yr old Water Pythons arriving tonight. I bought them off C_Ryan, who advertised them on this site. I will have some pics tomorrow.
