Don't piss it off

 

[junglepython2]

Don't get bitten
And if possible get an established feeder.

 

[Jesse28]

Make sure you post pics please

 

[Jesse28]

yeh i will im picking it up next week sunday if plans dont change

 

[hazza88]

early christmas present for yourself i am guessing

 

[Jesse28]

na my mate is moving to QLD so he is giving it to me for free

 

[snakes123]

even better than an early chrissy present when it comes free heyy. haha

 

[Jesse28]

haha yeh i just wish i had more spare cages to get some of his other snakes.

Dont give it to much heat,if any, mine dont get any. they crap a lot and it stinks so keep on top of that.
I prefer to feed smallish feeds often rather than large feeds. but thats just me.
Mine are loving the change from newspaper substrate to bunnings brand eucy mulch but it needs to be sprayed every now and then because it gets dry.

oh yeah, dont get bit

 

[Jesse28]

thanks for that mate. it's feeding on medium mice

What ssssnakeman said, please don't cook them - they don't do well in high heat for extended periods.

Hope you enjoy cleaning cages, because you will spend plenty of time doing that with these snakes

 

[Jesse28]

i clean all of my snakes and lizards cages once every week.

 

[IgotFrogs]

hrmmm my only tip would be stay away from the bitey end ....

 

[Jesse28]

haha yeh. i have held it a few times very bitey getting it out of the cage but once its out its good

 

[BurtonReptiles]

i will sick to pythons lol

 

[Jesse28]

haha true but some of the venomous snakes look awsome.

 

[IgotFrogs]

Well, good luck to you .... Pythons are "safe" for me lol .....
Just be careful!

And yes they are very awesome to see ....... At someone else's or a zoo or park lol ....

 

[Sezzzzzzzzz]

this has me wondering, do you have to keep antivenom at your house?
