Great pics everyone
albino olive is my dream snake....
I recently (four months ago) become an olive owner, he was brought just to be a pet, I have lots of breeders, but wanted a large breed python for a pet. He is awesome to handle, though not to be left near anything that could be eaten. I opened his enclosure and removed his h2o to refresh as I do every three days, my pitty was asleep on my bed, within the few seconds it took me to walk to the bathroom, he launched himself out of his enclosure and started constricting my dog! She yelped and snapped, he let go, neither was harmed, but olive never out when dog is around. (yes my bad for leaving the door open I just never thought he would take on a 20kg dog)
One thing has me concerned is the size of my enclosure, I was planning to get a stein so will be a display enclosure. But not for awhile yet, unless I win lotto
current enclosure is 120cm long, 90cm high & 65cm wide. He is four and weighs approximate 5kg, estimated length would be 220cm, am I being mean? Should he have longer already? He seems happy cruising around, has three hides & a litter tray for an h20 bowl.
