Beautiful snake know shouldnt post this here, but roughly how much does an olive hatchy cost (or up to a year old) and how large do they generally max out as? beautiful snakes, first time i saw one in person was when it was slung around my shoulders at billabong sanctuary for an animal handling practical

Yeah- I paid $500 US here in the states for him, and they get anywhere from about 8' - 12'+.

Thanks guys.
That's one of the reasons I love these things- he's ALWAYS doing that with his head- always headed up, and surveying his surroundings.
He was in that position for about 10 minutes, just looking around!

Id love to get an Olive Water Python, but are they really as snappy as everyone says? Ive heard some are very placid, Only problem is i have young kids, and would like something suitable for them as well, Don't want a Childrens.

Super- olives and waters are 2 entirely different snakes, but I have both- they are definitely my favorites in my collection.
I think many young pythons are/can be very snappy (my olive was a HELLION as a youngster), but is PURE joy now, and totally trustworthy with my kids.
An olive or a water may not be the best first snake, but both are DEFINITELY a very rewarding species to keep! I find that I handle my olive and water pair more often than any other of my snakes, including my carpets...
