Wifey finally broke down and let me get back into a little snake action. Started with just your standard ball python so she can acclimate herself before I bring in the morphs. This was his tank the night I set it up but have since rescaped the entire thing with new stuff. I'll post pictures of the new setup soon but for now here he is.

sweet snake,how big do they grow ?

 

[SirReal303]

Thanks. Ball pythons are one of the smallest constrictors... Usually 3-4 feet depending on male/female and the care you give.

 

[willow]

that's not a bad size at least, do you have any more ?

 

[SirReal303]

Yeah ive also got a green tree python. This is him.

This guy will (probably) start to turn green as he matures, but these are just juvenile colors. Sometimes they can also be red as juvies. When they are adults they'll usually be a bright green and sometimes will have blue mixed in to the pattern where the red is on the yellow juvenile. Others can even retain a lot of the red from being a juvie so there are MANY variations on the color patterns as adults. A lot more aggressive than a ball python, these will reach 6-7 feet. Body stays a lot more slender though as they live in the trees.

Here's what a typical adult looks like, but like I said, if u google green tree python there are tons of variations.
