    Awee, Sandor is so cute with his adorable little googly eyes hehe

    I'm soo in love with blood pythons, for now I'll research and admire from adorable pictures and videos, but perhaps in a few years I'll be experienced enough to own one of these beauties.

    Thank you :)

    If you find a good breeder they will help you pick out a exceptionally sweet tempered young one, one that has already been handled some and is good with it, you are good to go. One that also feeds well. There are more like that out there, then there are nasty ones. Since so many are captive bred nowadays. You have nervous babies because many breeders do not have time to handle, or they want to make sure they eat well before doing so. But that goes for any snakes, babies are usually defensive.

    If you go with the right breeder and pick the right animal you could do it no problem. You have to learn the correct husbandry, but it is nothing that is complicated. You keep them cooler then Ball Pythons, higher humidity but well ventilated. The key is to get a nicely established young one, preferably one that is non chalant to handling :)

    Don't they have the cutest googly eyes ?

    Here is a video of one of my fav. morphs. The light color really makes those googly eyes pop :)

    Sandor is a very handsome critter Zina. He seems pretty mellow too in the pics.

    That is a Blood Python. Color morph is called "007"
    There are quite a few diff. color morphs in Blood Pythons now..

    Isn't that one a Beauty, though :) And such a sweetie. Once they are "tame" and calm, they make the best couch buddies. They are curious, not head shy, and like to "hang out" ;)

    He is def. not an aggressive one. He is still un-sure. But I make sure not to push it to far, to fast. He is certainly smart, he knows the room his tub is in, once we enter it, he starts looking and moving into the direction the tub is at.
    Normally once in the tub he will slowly slither back under his newspaper and into the hide. Today he just hung out in the open a bit, looking around calmly for quite a while. Getting a bit more confident :)

    They're fun little things, aren't they. Inquisitive, but don't want to leave their comfort zone. And yours is a beaut! I bet he'll look amazing as an adult. Id love to add a bright red like that someday.

    I also call my snake 'fatty'. And my dog. And my boyfriend, who is super slender. I don't think it means what it actually means to me anymore.
