:shock: it probably isnt a perthensis judging by how much it cost you and how rare they are but anything is possible.
except growing feathers and flying :cry:
if you could post a pic of the animal full stop..
pygmy pythons are a little differant visually so not that hard to pick from a stimmy or maccy for example.
cheers paul.
Perthensis do look quite a bit different from the others.
You can also count midbody scales. Perthensis has fewer mid-body scales
than all similar pythons (31-35 vs 37 or more).
