Pilbara olive python

[Jonno from ERD]

How's THIS for a good memory - I remembered seeing some for sale and it turns out it was 10 years ago! Link - Yahoo! Groups

I am not sure what they are licensed as, but it doesn't particularly matter as lots of species aren't actually what they are listed as on permit.

I knew those animals extremely well lol.

The information I know was that the pair were originally wild caught adults from the Tom Price area, they were declared in the 1996/97 NSW amnesty and then moved into Victoria. They did accidentally breed producing 8 eggs of which only 5 hatched. I don't think this pair bred again. Last I heard the 5 hatchlings were reared in South Australia and are still alive and breeding successfully but as a hit and miss affair. I understand a few were declared in the amnesty as liasis olivaceus.

If you are wanting to see and handle one without getting a good bite.

Go down to Naturaliste Reptile Park down in Bussleton, its is the only place in WA who legally has a Pair in captivity.
The owner, Roger is a great guy and enjoys talking reptiles with you.

so, how exactly do you tell the difference between liasis olivaceus and Liasis olivaceus barroni , is there any visual differences, apart from size or is it just genetic
