That last photo is my girl Grace.

This one is Charlie (M), Brownie P (F), Fatso (F) and Angel who is shedding at the moment.
Sorry I got a bit snap happy :D!! Also I did play with the brightness and contrast but only to show the true colours as best I could (I promise)

Awesome Imbricata in that end picture, a real stunner.
What locality would it be from?

Ok the last 2
Slim and Smidget - If the person who sold me smidget is looking at this we have been having trouble getting her to feed on fuzzies. Strangely enough she has taken a real liking to day old chicks but they are way to big for her to eat.

Serpant_Lady: another beginner question, what is that ground covering you have for your pythons, are they stimsons?
 
Juliets,
Yes the brown/red pythons are Antarasia stimsoni[/I

The stuff I use on the bottom is ground up coconut shell. You buy it in a brick for about $2.50 from Bunnings in the gardening section (DONT get the stuff w/ added fertilizer) and add water to it to expand it. I like it because it holds a bit of moisture unlike others which can cause shedding problems. Also i can spot clean it, it is environmentall friendly and if they python happens to eat some it can jst be passed through unlike sand and will not absorb their gastric juices when in the stomach.

The downside is when you add the water you need to giv it a few days otherwise it can be too damp and cause excess humidity.

AND dont owrry about asking silly questions. You should see the ones I still ask!
