how difficult is it to buy an olive?

Olives are great, but I'd prefer an east coast water without a doubt
A week or two before my water python laid her eggs I opened up the cage to change the water and she came straight out, slithered up my arm, around my neck, down my other arm and straight back under the spotlight I never handle gravid snakes for fear of disturbing them, it was sort of like she was saying she missed me. Okay okay, yes, I know, I'm pathetic :roll: :lol:

Most sellers won't hurt you too much or demand that you answer any riddles which are too confusing. I'm sure you'd be capable of it.
Easy, get a bredli , then explain its getting lonely and you NEED to get another snakeTommo said:... trying to decide whether to go for olives, bts of bredli

When I am watching tv, she always find me and prefer to climb on me, then on other people. I think that she recognize me , and feel secure by crawling on me.

Does this mean that they sometimes do constrict people? As in kill them? Excuse my ignorance, just trying to find out as much info as I can!
There should be plenty of hatchies for sale just after X-mas when all the little babies have emerged from their eggs.I meant - I have been looking around to see if I can buy them (trying to decide between an olive and a diamond, am only allowed one) and they don't seem to be found anywhere... that's what I call hard!

I was helping my friend in trouble once. He was showing me his 2.4 metre long coastal and turn blue in the face in seconds. Luckily I was there to help him quickly. If you are along in that situation, you can end up with injured snake by trying to get rid of the coiling animal in any cost to save your live.
And believe me 3 metre olive python 150 mm diameter can do lot of damage.
But what does brian think about that? he might not like being called "very small brian"Just remember that a python is mostly muscle controlled by a very small brian and you will do fine
