Woma Black Head Hybrid?

Has anyone created a woma black head hybrid? I'm curious to know what it would look like or if it's even possible.

I imagine it would look nearly the same, perhaps bigger, considering they look so much alike.

I would hope that it never actually happens in captivity, since the black heads are so few and far between (from my wanderings anyways) that people would keep them separate.

I believe I read somewhere that there are actually 3 different localities of womas that differ enough to mandate no crossing even at that level?

I could be completely wrong about that last part. :oops:

I doubt it.

There are way too few people breeding blackheaded pythons. Some have trouble with breeding blackhead to blackhead, so I don't know why someone would want to attempt it.

considering the difficulty associated with breeding these species, then hatching the eggs, to begin with - i doubt this would happen. if it did then i think they'd look like a really ugly woma.

I think it could happen in the future... Im not saying it will look pretty but it could happen.... evenually.....

There are actually more than 3 localities of womas but here in the States, we don't have access to pure locality womas.

I am sure at some point someone will try to produce the intergrade but not in the near future.

Yeah. I imagine they would look nearly the same too, just with a different head than either of them have.

Have any woma crosses been made?

Yes. The wall; a ball x woma cross.

The wall is awsome!!

- Tanami

- Uluru

- Boodarie

- Rockhampton Downs

- Tennant Creek

- etc.

However, many of these locales are areas within other localities - for example, Tennant Creek is in the Tanami desert.
