He`s absolutley adorable and the pics are great. The third is my favourite aswell.

 

[blakehose]

He is always extremely active aswell. Always crusing about the enclosure. The second the glass slides open he is out of there!

Olive Python

Your Olive Python is so cute and l to love the 3rd photo with it sticking its head up as if its wants to say hi to you.

l will be getting 4 Olive Pythons from a breeder in Katherine NT in about 2 to 3 weeks, 2 are wild caught and a roughly around 5 foot long 18 months old, the other 2 are 1st generation captive breed and a 3 foot long 8 months old, this will give me 2 unrelated pair for future breeding, and the good thing is they all a found in the same region Katherine NT and have no OPMV or IBD or other health issues.

l was going to get either QLD or NT Phase Black-Headed Pythons or Woma Pythons, but l decided that Olive Pythons are my number 1 favourite Australian Python, and why would l want anything else other than Olive Pythons.

They are just so awesome and easy to look after and have a great personality.

You've got it dialled Reptilian! I'm going to get a female towards the end of the year for my fella.

 

[Wally]

Hurry up and breed him, I'm not that far down the road.

 

[blakehose]

Yeah I would like to try next year, it is just dependant on whether he will be at the right size and if I can get him a female. Where are you located Wally?

 

[Wally]

[Wally]

Race down and bring me an Olive hatchie.

Yeah you would be, by far the best snakes I have ever come into contact with.

Thanks jfjellstrom, apart from the little damaged scales on his nose from rubbing it, he is perfect. They come off each shed anyway.

 

[blakehose]

Nice morning, so here are a couple of him getting some UV....The photos are terrible quality, but not the snake He is growing very,very fast.
