just want to see what some of you have out there, i love olives but only recently got my first girl, she's taking bit of time to settle in though so haven't got too see her too much just yet, if anyone has some pics of theirs would love to see them
thanks
 
Here you can see my 2 adult NT Phase Olive Python's, the female was born in December 1999 is 12 foot long, the male was born in December 2001 is 9 foot long, they are so placid to keep as a Pet Python, l would not swap them for anything else.

They are never locked up in their enclosure 24hours a day 7 days week, they have the freedom to roam around my house when they like too.

l have been doing this for the last 5 years, and yes l am on my own and have them out by myself together, they never seem to want to attack me at all, and l know our to approach them without getting bitten, l do understand there body language.
 
Thats amazing! Have they ever been lost whilst being in the house?
No they have never ever been lost, l know where they like to hide in my place, and one of there favourite places is inside the bottom of my oven, that is why you see the male on my kitchen bench, he was hiding for l wholeday inside the bottom of the oven, then he came out at 6-30pm and rested on my kitchen bench for a while.
l cannot cook anything without first checking to see if they are hiding in the bottom of my oven.

Haha yer that would be great having free roaming reptiles!
 
Here's some pics of my two. They are both around the 8 foot mark now. She is 2.6m. I measured her last week. He is a bit shorter but only because he is missing his tail. Their names Stella (hers) and Marlow (his).

Your pair of Olive Python's both look beautiful, l like the photo where you see the 2 heads face to face, as if they want to kiss each other.
