The Freshly Shed Thread

Despite the similarity in appearance, I don't think Prof_Moreliarty's Dajarra python is an MD. From what I have heard and read the Dajarra python only grows to about 1.5m.
How old is yours, P_M?

 

[Prof_Moreliarty]

Coming up to 4 years old @pinefamily

 

[pinefamily]

And how long is it?

 

[Prof_Moreliarty]

It’d be about roughly 1.6m give or take. @pinefamily roughly what size would an average captive MD be at that age? I believe they can get 2.5m once adults?

 

[SpottedPythons]

I think 2 metres or so is more average. Sometimes more.

 

[pinefamily]

Where did you get it from, P_M? Was it sold to you as an MD or as a Dajarra python?
The first I ever heard of them was when Kel Worley was breeding them.

 

[Prof_Moreliarty]

Got her from Kel Worley. Sold as a dajarra he said they have different head shape and were smaller growing than an MD. Not the exact same ad but here is similar ad.

The head shape is certainly distinctive. He and I had a discussion about the similarities and differences between the Dajarra's and the Gammon Ranges pythons, which also don't grow as long as other Morelia.

A couple of Julattens just shed, the old girl is 13 now and loosing contrast a bit, still thinks anything near her cage is food and was eying my phone. The other one is not the best colour but he is so tame with none of the usual jungle aggression I kept him to see if he stays that way.

Good morning gorgeous. Nice to see you used the rock I gave you.

 

[Tarron]

Went out for 2 hours came home to this. Fern’s shed. Second shed since she has been with me. First one was not the best as she wasn’t in her forever home. Now she is and got a pretty good shed. Full but has some holes in it also head and 2 eye caps. Measures 1100mm

 

[Yellowtail]

Just shed and fed and she has her eye on my phone for desert.

The new guy, freshly shed. He/she was named Striker by the previous owner, and the name's stuck.

That is a pretty damn nice looking snake Oshkii!

 

[Nero Egernia]

Here's a photo of him in sunlight. Probably should have called him Silver. I reckon Silver Striker. He certainly was a nippy little fella but already he's starting to calm down.

Reduced pattern albino just shed.

[doublepost=1513769074,1513754852][/doublepost]Just caught this beautiful dark skinned Darwin girl in process of undressing, she even came outside to show me when I opened the door.

[doublepost=1513772183][/doublepost]All done, time to relax.

My yearling gosford diamond shed lastnight, got his tail stuck in the shedding as always haha. BTW- is there something wrong with his tail? It looks a bit unusual, might be something to do with the stuck shed.
