Thinking about a blood, have some questions
Hey guys. So I've been thinking of getting a new addition to my collection, and I'm really liking the look of alot of your blood pythons I see on here! :gj: I'm not informed on, well, really anything about blood pythons though. It was just a spur of the moment "let's look at these pictures...omgosh wow cool I want one" kinda thing :P
I wanna know a few things before I decide if a blood would be good for me. Like, what are their temperaments like? Do they have any different husbandry needs? (like the difference between a BCI and a BCC, where the BCC requires stricter husbandry practice) If I get a baby, should I feed it like I feed my baby BPs? (rat pups every Friday evening) Uhm..I dunno, what else should I know about these guys :P Currently I'm only experienced with my BP's and boa's, and I know different species may require different practices. I'd really appreciate anything ya guys can help me out with :bow:

It's probably the best caresheet around.
There isn't really a difference in husbandry requirements between subspecies of bloods. They do require much more attention to husbandry requirements than bps or boas.
