An eastern brown I moved on from work last week, there's a lot of rats around the port. Not the biggest I've seen but had a lot of girth to it. The brown was hiding in the water main box, glad I look first before sticking my hands in there. Not the best picture, it wasn't very cooperative lol...

OK this maybe a stupid question but I recently got a spotted python (my first ever snake ) has anybody got any tips to get him more people friendly ? And also how much is over handling ? At the moment I'm handling every day for about 15mins-20 mins (unless he has had a feed or grumpy ) thanks

Hi all, our 4 yo BHP has been refusing food since we started to warm her up again. Her male companion (separate enclosure) took food immediately after it was offered, as did the other pythons we cooled over winter. We did observe copulation when pairing the male and female and suspect she may...

Apologies if this is covered elsewhere. Have just joined forum, and could not find my question covered. This is a question about regularity of shedding cf feeding. My gorgeous 3yo female mac has recently altered her feed/shed cycle. She usually enjoys small adult rats;about 3 weeks apart in...

Hey everybody, ive noticed my spotted pythons tied together a couple of times over the last couple of weeks. Is there a rough estimate of how many days until they lay? Or is it just oct-dec. I've found all the info about shedding and egg hatch times, just nothing on egg laying

Hey reptile gurus. I'm getting prepared as I'm potentially about to have my first clutch of spotted python eggs. The only issue I'm having so far is humidity. critique my pictures, let me know if it's a good design etc. Main question- can it be TOO humid? I have a digital gauge and it's...

Not sure if we have a thread for this, but here is an excessive amount of photos of myself and my M. bredli and A. maculosa. Apologies for the pic-heaviness. Also I'm aware of health risks for these ones, but I actually yawned and the snakes went in my mouth so I took a quick photo...

Hi, one of my spotted pythons has a few scales on his belly that appear to be cut/rough. i tried to take photos of this but could not get a good enough picture. his enclosure is very clean and the substrate of paper towel is dry, and because the scales feel dry i don't think it's scale rot. he...

Hi As winter is getting nearer should I let my spotted python berenate (sorry can't spell) and turn the heat off? Or should I reduce the hours that the heat is on? Or leave it how it is at 12 hrs a day. Advice would be great thanks.:)
