Show us your Rough Scaled Pythons

[D3pro]

Hey guys,

I absolutely love this species, in my opinion it's very underrated and is a gem in our herp culture. You can keep Greens, Albinos, Jags... but this is the one that always catches my eye for some reason, it has so much personality and it's so surreal.

I wanted to see more of it as I have been working on some projects and every time they send me photos there is always a roughy in it.

It would be nice to see the snakes in their enclosures and see how you guys keep them. They also vary in pattern but does anyone have one with dorsal stripe? or something similar?

Cheers guys,

[FusionMorelia]

roughies! they rule and i can PROVE they are the best looking snakes(apart from my MD LOL)
when selling something you sell using the most attractive image/ad you can and on the cover of the book
Keeping and breeding Australian pythons is, yesss a roughie! proof they are the best you wouldn't put an ugly snake on the cover
more roughies! you lucky roughie owners!

Do roughies have any special needs, like GTP`s or are they same as looking after any other python

Ha I knew you would post pics. You sure they don't need special water and food? lol.

Thanks for posting pics up guys... there all stunning

I'll get new pics of my pair. I have found them to be shy feeders, my male will only take food left on the ground over night and my fem will only take quail followed by a mouse but they are stunning pythons. My male has i guess what could be called reduced pattern down towards the end of his body, the brown blotches are smaller and more of the lighter color shows

 

[sara_sabian]

They are amazing little critters, unfortunatley mine has started to get a bit shy with his feeding too. I'm wondering if the conastant rain around here is playing a part in that.

That second pic in the first post is AMAZING!!!

I may pair mine next year, I don't have many shots of them or any that are up to date but I might find an old one here somewhere.
I find mine are feeding demons and smash rats.
