Here are some pics my son, Fang101 on here, took of my baby boy. He is a Jan 2011 hatchie that I got of David - spilota_variegata.

Some really cool photos here, here's a shot of mine. The only time I have been bitten was when she missed the rat and grabbed my hand by mistake. The long teeth sure do penetrate, you can really really feel them in deeper then other pythons. Other then that I have never seen the defence posture they do when really scared and mine are very placid, though the male struck at my face one night (another food response bite) and I was just lucky he ran out of length 1 inch short!roughy teeth and dajani 007.jpgroughy teeth and dajani 006.jpgroughy teeth and dajani 003.jpgroughy teeth and dajani 001.jpg30042009004.jpg
 
This is our girl we got about 6 weeks ago. First RSP for us. She has been pretty flighty up until the last couple of times we handled her but never has been aggressive.

I just love RSP's. They are all just so pretty! Nice snakes all :)

Nice rsp's! the more i look at them the more i like them! is it true they are closely related to the green tree python?
also would you need an advanced license to keep these?
 
Well i can finally stop drooling and add to thread. Thanks to Dave Evans i got this little girl the other day. Super calm (except a chomp on my finger when i got her home and took her out the bag), and took a rat down that night with great enthusiasm.

crappy phone pics, let her settle in before i hastle her with the big camera...

okay i want one right now! lol they are amazing. anyone got hatchy pairs at all? pm me??

so turns out RSP are on a specialist permit here in SA and there is no point paying for 6 months now only to pay for a year in 1 month :( this makes me an un happy camper.. i hate to wait.. oh well guess it will give me time to find a pair of crackers

This new girls parents are brother and sister of my stolen Roughie (Roudy).

Here's a photo of Roudy as a hatchling to compare too. (the head markings are almost identical).

I haven't taken a photo yet, but on Sunday, we went back and got another one for my fiancée. Because we can :)
 
One of mine, he loves to curl up in a ball, done so ever since he was a hatchy. None of my other pythons do this, is it a rough scaled thing or is he just unique? haha

EDIT: I just noticed the snake in the post above mine, perhaps it is just a RSP thing. :lol:

Yes, it's a Roughie thing. Young Roughies do it as a defense mechanism.

Here is a clutch mate of yours Ozzie, this one is so calm to but has a really strong food response so I am sure I will get complacent at some stage and cop a feel of those teeth.

This is my favourite snake closely followed by the GTP.

Cheers,
Paul
