    Hey guys, Pyro again! Got a really nice new picture of my new Boa Constrictor, Dante, and a couple questions! I've done a lot of research on how to care for snakes and although most of it was based on Ball Pythons which was the snake I'd intended to get, I did broaden by horizons and...

    Female Pygmy Stimson Python

    Hey APS, I have been chasing a female Pygmy Stimson Python for awhile now and had no luck finding one. I would prefer 2 years plus of age but will take younger considering how hard they are to find. Will pay more than fair price for the right animals. Thanks. Pm or text/call 0433 469 957

    Hi, my name is Jade. I've just bought a 12 month old female stimsons python. I fed her for the first time tonight and after she ate I noticed the sides of her mouth were purple, is this normal? How often should I handle her and for how long?
