I love my MDs... they're a fair bit bigger than this now, but I don't have any recent pics, unfortunately. I'll have to grab some.

Great handlers (although my female was a bit snappy when smaller), and feeders. My boy is the most placid thing in the world.

I have to say, Murray darlings have got to be one of the most underrated of the carpet python species in my opinion. Their colours, yet limited, are so contrasting. Love them to bits.

Wowwowwow!!! :shock: Do want!!

I am due to get my two new boys soon and I can't wait. Many thanks to Sharon.
I will post some pics straight away (like all proud new parents )

I still hold hopes that my dear little Solomon Kane (Spotted) will turn up. It has been hard enough living at my brother's (as much as I appreciate it - and I truly do). I guess all the disorganization and mayhem was sure to result in me forgetting something......that something was to lock Solomon's door

Looks like we may finally have a new place, thanks to an old friend.....so the new Murray Darlings, the birds, the cats, the dogs, the horses, us....and hopefully Solomon, can all breathe easier out on 48 acres. Fingers crossed.

Crap...this was supposed to be about my new MDs, sorry....always was a yakker!!!!

Absolutely gorgeous! To every animal in this thread. Still very pricey here to get a metcalfei, but they are very high on my want list. Great pics everyone!

Great to have some O.S members! It's nice to see how much our wildlife is appreciated around the globe. I hope your dream of owning an MD comes true soon

here's a thread on my boy Malachi

I've had him from a Yearling. He's a shy snake, fears being dropped so he holds on tight. Was a problem feeder now he launches out of his enclosure for food. They are a beautiful snake

How much do they go for there?

Thank you! It will. I just have to wait untill it won't cost me a kidney. A Diamond I think is next on the list.

How much do they go for there?

Well, there aren't a whole lot of them available in the States yet. More are getting brought in from Europe, and more people are becoming interested in them, as well as the Darwins, (variegata). The last public ad I saw was...

kingsnake.com Classifieds: Inland Carpet Pythons - M.s. metcalfei - Ground Floor Opportunity - $4k/pair

I might be able to get a bit of a better deal if I had the money up front and could afford it, through other channels, but that pretty much sets the market at this point...

Crazy to think if you look here you can get them for under $100 per snake
