antaresia childreni

Hi A friend just called me up to say they have a python in their shed. I've picked it up but can't positively ID it as a Spotted or Childrens. I didn't do a scale count or check sub-caudal scales as both species are virtually the same in that regard. I'm in Taree NSW so it's not native to this...

Not much else to say about it other than what will I call it.....

Hey guys, I'm getting a Children's Python in close to 2 weeks and I was just making sure I've got all my information correct :) Okay, so as a "youngling" feed her a pinkie mouse every 5 days. The enclousre is an exo terra tank, with aspen shavings as a substrate with a 14w heat mat. There are...

My beautiful striped coastal Carpet Pythons

Ok so I'm in the process of building a pine enclosure which I will chuck some pics up of another day but I'm almost finished and even if I'm not allowed a second snake, I want to build something anyway without physical help from dad so thought I'd have a go at chucking together a little melamine...

Firstly, sorry for all the requests for advice lately - I kind of forgot I was a member here :P Salazar is nearly 5 years old and has progressively gotten wimpier when it comes to his food. I know snakes tend to become more placid with as they get older, but I think it's getting a bit silly...

Hey, I was wondering if anybody knows where I can find a nice piece of wood for my Childrens python enclousre. I live on the central coast and next to a reserve so could I just go in there and find a suitable sized log? Thanks :)

I just went to view a 2m female Murray darling that is for sale locally and was a bit concerned as it seemed to be breathing heavily. I've never seen a snake breathe like that before. It was audible breathing and when she slithered past my neck I could feel the air on my skin. The owner assured...

ok, so i want to get some more reptiles(mainy snakes) and im just wondering about how big things need to be. and also with pine being poison to them, is it just if tehy say eat it, or if they have anything to do with it(could the enclosure be made of it with a few coats of varnish stuff or...

So I'm getting my new snake in a few days for my birthday, she's supposed to be a 3 month old Childrens Python. But she doesn't look like any Children's pythons i've seen, and she looks too big to be 3 months old? Am I wrong? Thanks.

And so I figured I would ask.. I got my first snake a little over 2 months ago.. Holly the Jungle carpet.. And when I take her out out of her enclosure I generally 9 times out of 10 put her up over my the back of my neck/shoulders and let her wrap around my neck etc.. I mean she doesn't...

As the title says. My mac is two and half years old and 95cm long. The reptile bloke that I buy my rats off tells me hopper rats are the way to go for now. However, I've just read on Dolittle farm that rats aren't advised for macs but small quail are, so the point of all this is do any of you...

Hi all, Just a quick question, and I know this is a big topic (I have looked before anyone asks!),but my Childrens Python is acting quite strangely with regard to feeding. When I got it, it was a reasonable feeder, every couple of weeks on average. She went off feeding for a month or so then...

Hi guys! This is really just to vent my frustration a bit after a trip this morning to the local pet shop to pick up some rats for our little stimmi. Now, I've never actually bought rats from the pet shop as we have a reliable breeder who usually supplies us with quality, cheap food. As he...

Large commercial breeders say the keep snakes 0-8 months (or so) in click clack containers to reduce stress. Personal owners I have spoken to say anything smaller than about 250 litres makes no difference, plus you dont need the extra cost for a second enclosure. Opinions? Would love to hear...

Hi guys, First time poster, long time lurker here. Been interested in getting an antaresia for a while now, but parents have always been very anti-snake-in-the-house (I don't get it - they're so cuddly). My dad mentioned that a guy at his workplace needs to sell his children's python...
