Bali snake

[Rache]

Held this awesome little fellow in Bali about 6 months ago... wanted to take him home. Does anyone know what breed he is?

Cheers

He was a lovely snake, I wanted to smuggle him home as the guy just used him to make some money off tourists (which he reluctantly got off me, after much debate).

 

[Retic]

Yes, it's a Reticulated Python, my favourite python species in fact.

retic! i just saw them at toronga zoo a few days ago at my school excursion.

 

[Rache]

Sweet as... he must be a small one then? He was so nice and placid. Not like the ones that tried to eat J Lo and Ice T.....

beautiful retic!! i would have wanted to take him home too!!!

Island Retics inc those on Bali, are reported to be a dwarf species. Bali also has Burmese Pythons, found at the western side of the Island.

Nice retic!

I have a Bali retic. Called a Bali yellowhead retic, but his head has faded from yellow as a juvie to more like a normal as an adult. Raised him from a c.b. baby to a 12-foot heavy adult so far.

You'd have quite the handful with one of those!

Sorry double post, but I am SO jealous. Usually I'm all about native species (kinda have to be, living in Perth). But retics and burmese pythons... well I would do anything to own one

 

[jasontini]

Might be the same Retic.? that python is huuuuge...
Nice pictures Rache n MManne..
(how safe isit to go to Bali now.??)

Beautiful Balis

I agree with you all that they are beautiful snakes.

Their temperment is usually pretty touchy, I wish mine was as calm as those seem to be!
