Yeah it would be nice if I had a proper camera to take better pictures of him instead of my phone though.
 
Whilst this is about Bredli's.....Can people offer some advice on general temperament?

I understand that there will always be the 'snake from hell' in any species......but generally what are they like?

I note that the book "The Complete Carpet Python" references them as being one of the more placid breeds and puts them alongside the Murray Darling as an excellent forgiving first snake. I have seen a couple that were that cranky I would not even give them to my ex- mother inlaw!! I have seen one that was an absolute pussycat - just a big sook!

So those with experience.....How do you rate them? Are they a good general beginners or family snake?.....or would you rate them more as a snake for someone with a little more experience and maybe less family oriented?

Interested to hear opinions?
 
I would say they are a beginners snake, if you can handle the size of them. they do get fairly big for a beginners snake IMO. Our bredli was the first snake in the house. She has bitten once and once only (mums fault) it was a feed response bite thingy.


I would suggest them as a first snake :)
9/10 I say ;)

I finally got around to taking some half-decent pics of my girl Maggot. These were taken 2 days after what may or may not be a pre-lay shed (please see OTHER THREAD).

female i bred that hatched in Feb... unfortunately she has been sold, hopefully i made the right decision to hold back the female i did...

 
I can now add to this thread.
This is Atlas :) he's my first snake too. He's a little defensive the poor thing but I can already see him relax from the time I've gotten him out to the time I put him back in :)
