python

I've had my children's python for just over a month now and he's always been a breeze to feed, and overall a very calm snake even when I unintentionally handled him whilst in shed; but for the past two weeks he has been refusing to eat and showing no interest in the mouse at all. Upon pulling...

I'm in the market for a few Antaresia (preffered Stimson) pythons. Anything visually unusual. Age preferred hatchling -2 years. Gender not fussed. Not in a crazy hurry so if you have a clutch coming I'm all ears :)

I caught a python i don't know if it is pet material or which phthon is this , care, safety, handle ? Can any one tell me

hey just posting this thread here as well I recently got an olive python from an expo nearly 2 weeks ago now and she has yet to eat i messaged the breeder and he said to leave it in her cage either on her or near the entrance to her hide and neither has worked she has pooped so i know she has...

My snake seems to be more mucusy since giving him the antibiotics prescribed for him. Is it true that he will get worse before he gets better? Is he just bringing up the mucus so it rids his body of it? It's been 2 weeks now. His a albino Darwin 4 years old. QUICK BACK STORY Temp and...

Hi guys. Newbie - apologies in advance if I'm asking daft questions. Got our SW carpet in November and it was extremely thin. 80cm, 14mths old and was getting 1 hopper every 14 days. We upped it to weekly feeds of same and he put on some weight. Went through a very easy, trouble free shed a...

I'm thinking of buying a snake- but because of personal reasons cannot commit to their 20+ lifespan, so I'm looking for older snakes, preferably 10+. I am a beginner to snakes but not reptiles. I have a glass enclosure that is approx. 1m long and 60cm wide and tall. I have the funds available...

Rosie has been a delightful family pet for the past 3 years, and we have been the sole owners since she was 3 months old. She is likely a coastal variety and is in great condition. We are selling her with habitat with lights, gauges etc. She has out grown our family and needs a great new home...

I am fascinated by their cultural connection and colours and really want to add one to my collection. However 6 months of scrolling reptile pages has not returned any leads I have access to. Yes there have been a number for sale, however owners were interstate and not prepared to ship them. I...

Is this true? Is it the same risk for all types of jungles?

Looking for an olive python i am in sydney but will travel for the right snake Pic for attention

Whats specific to palmerston jungle python? thanks

Hi, what do people think of this carpet cross? I have seen the Zebra version and it looks great! (If it was female I would have purchased it on the spot!) Do they have problems with temp or shedding? What do people think? Thanks

Hi Everyone, I'm looking for a little more information on the breath capacity of carpet pythons. Tonight my boy decided to body slam his rat into his water dish, and is holding both himself and the rat underwater. I was wondering really how long he could keep this up for and if I should...

Looking for a spotted python hatchling. Have licence and wanted before Christmas. Hope someone can help :)

Hey guys, So I’m fairly new at snake keeping and my partner has had snakes his whole life. We recently got Kaa our jungle jag python of 2-3 years old from a friend who could no longer keep her. She is roughly 1.5m at the moment. We have her in an enclose that’s 2.5m H x 1.5m W x 1.5 L we use...

I'm putting out a Request For Information, on any leads for Montgomery line Palmerston Jungles... I wish I knew more about Montgomery himself, so if people know him and if he is still breeding, that'd be great. Would love to keep that line going.

Hey there! I'm a new snake owner and purchased a Stimson's python three days ago. He is about 5 weeks old and quite aggressive but I know through proper handling each day he will grow out of it. He lives in a 3ft tank and climbs up into one of the lid corners instead of basking or hiding. The...

She can be a bit cage defensive especially at feeding time but once out she's placid. Also have a 3ft reptile one enclosure as seen in the pictures. Pickup Harrington Park 2567 NSW PM if interested.

Hi guys, So I've had my Albino Darwin for about 4 weeks. She's 6 months old. The first couple of weeks she was eating really good (1 mice per 7-10 days). When I tried to feed her for the third time on Tuesday (3 nights ago), she stroke at the mice and wrapped her coil around it for a minute...

Hey there! I have a 2 year old (female?) Stimson's python, who I feel is on the smaller side. Is there an average weight for Stimson's pythons as they age? The breeder I bought her from, at 11 months, was feeding her as little as possible, to keep her small so she'd be bought, which is awful. I...

Hi guys, I was hoping one of you experts would be able to help me identifying a snakeskin that we found at our house's atrium. We've been told it might be a brown snake, but we have a lot of pythons around and it's a very long skin (132cm). Fortunately, the skin of the head is still attached...

Hey everyone. There's a long story to this but basically someone I live with has a diamond python, it was given to him by someone who also didn't have a licence, ever. The problem is I have a child and this person hasn't looked after the snake well at all, as in it's now very aggressive. No one...

Hi all! I know there has been a few threads on this in the past but none of them are recent so I’m wondering if there is any Aussie reptile youtubers out there that are still active? Tried searching the ones in the older threads but a lot of them aren’t making videos anymore so if there is any...

Hey guys, I recently acquired quite a large jungle python, I have owned a few large pythons before however this boy is very flighty and a little defensive when I try to get him out to handle him, my question is has any one got any tips or tricks that will help me calm him down without getting...

Hello friends :p I went to a reptile expo (Show me Snakes) a few days ago and picked up a Stimmie ;) She's a very sweet and curious little scalebaby, but I can't help but wonder what locality she resembles..? Does anyone have any guesses? :eek: Thanks, I appreciate it! Her name is Adelaide :p

Hi guy’s, Just wondering if anyone knows of anyone, or any breeders with Piebald or Leucistics here in Australia? I’ve searched everywhere but have only seen a couple that had already sold, and one in a zoo. Photo attached. Thanks!

Hi everyone! I have been researching about getting my first snake for a while now and it's finally going to happen! I am still debating what type to get though. I've been looking at childrens and stimsons pythons but people have been telling me snakes such as the darwin carpet python are easier...

Hi all Im curious to see how big a year old stimsons python gets. I currently have a nine month old stimmie and I want to see approx how big he'll be when he's one. Its also alright if its a little over or under one years Thanks

im thinking of getting either baby stimson's or baby spotted p.s i'm in vic so if there is anyone in vic who has either on of those for no more than $100 with this sort of pattern i'd gladly take it off your hands

Hey guys! I’ve had my lil stimsons for about 2 weeks now. She’s had two successful feeds with me, and loves to take her food straight away - but I’ve noticed she hasn’t pooped yet? I know it’s probably such a simple answer as to why, but I can’t find any info, so I thought I’d ask here! I’m...

So Im interested in olive pythons, I have experience with 9-10ft coastal pythons, would you say they are similar to coastals? ive read they are aggressive at feeding time and initially getting out of an enclosure so I am aware of that Ive got a snappy coastal so i am use to that side of things...

Im still pretty new to owning reptiles, and would like to learn more about the colours and how to identify them But one thing that has me confused are the coastals, I own coastals and love them, but im pretty set on only owning pure, ive recently learnt about caramel, zebra and orange pepper...

Hi, I know this is a common one, but I also feel like it's very out of character. I've got a children's, 8 years old, female (have had since yearling). She ate a weaner rat at the end of Feb, and an adult mouse mid April. Nothing between or since- has rejected offers. Very active around her...

Hi everyone, I was just wondering if anybody had an Ant or Pygmy Stimson they'd be willing to part with, over the age of three months. I love how these snakes look, but know both can be scarce around these parts. Thanks in advance :)

Hi, here's my first post in here! My children's python Artie is about 11 months old and has always had a fairly calm temperament. Just recently, though, he's been very snappy and active, wriggling around to the point it's hard to hold him in the one spot. I've been feeding him one pinkie mouse a...

Hey guys I recently got a Olive python hatchling, roughly 650mm long, it's currently in a hatchling cage (600x 300x 150) that has a hiding cave and a water bowl, as well as a heat map underneath the cave. What concerns me is that it is constantly striking anything that moves even when there's...

Hey everyone!! I live in Adelaide South Australia and I’m still new to handling snakes. I have a 5 month old coastal carpet python and it’s beautiful. It’s quite a hot day today here in Adelaide and I need some tips on keeping my tank at the right temperature so it doesn’t over heat it while the...

I am adopting a python through the RSPCA, and am new to reptiles. I have seen that movement advice needs to be sent to the government? Will I have to do that or should the RSPCA do that for me? Im in QLD, and have got an RWL

I dont know is this right Place to ask but I had looking for some documentary about snakes and I find out it is Python: The sly strangler from year 1997 Does anyone in here have that documentary ? I would be very grateful if I can finally get that
