my black blood

hey, Im new to the forum. So I figured I'd post some pics of my black blood. These pics were taking the first day we got her. She was just about to go into a shed cycle. I need to take some new pics I know I've been slacking.

Nice black blood - fellow owner, here.

How big is she? What else do you keep?

My blood (Baby Nia) is almost 2feet. She is great. She doesn't mind handling at all. I just feed her saturday night, for the first time. She had no problems at all. I also have a female ball python. She was actually gravid when we bought her. (Which we didnt know) We used a friends chicken egg incubator, her eggs didnt make it. The temps/humidity were perfect. I had a feeling it was the incubator. The eggs were too close to the heat. I was sooo upset. But the ball was my first snake EVER! So I tried my best.

Cool - glad to hear you have a mellow one - same story with ours ("Vader" is actually the first herp our son bought for himself out of his own pocket) - a very mellow guy. They love humidity. What are you keeping yours in?

The blood is in a 20gallon (long) aquarium, with aspen/moss bedding. And our ball is in a 55 gallon with aspen and a lil moss. Both have a under the tank heater. And of course they both have water bowls, and hide boxes, plus drift wood.

Welcome to BP.net! :handshake:


Nice looking python you got there! Looking forward to seeing some post-shed pictures!

How is the humidity with the aspen?

not too good with just aspen(in the 20gallon)... so we added the moss, and have to spray it often. For some reason the 55gallon is always perfect. I added a little moss also, but it really doesnt need it.
