    As others stated, bloods are very thick heavy body snakes. Do a google image search for 'adult blood python' and you'll get a good idea. Some are absolute monsters.
    :D


    Thank ya! [emoji4]

    He's beautiful... I like the blacks better than the reds, and would love to have one these in my collection some day.


    Thank you! I would love a black.. they are stunning!

    If you saw him in person you would likely not think he is overweight! :) I'm actually thinking he could use some weight, either that or I need to take him out for exercise more frequently so he gets more muscle, or maybe I've just not seen enough borneos... but he has a very prominent spine when you hold hom certain ways! Though he does eat just fine.

    Either way, he's a pretty boy and he is very lucky to have gotten a good home. :) I have a pair of 2016 Marbles (the female is an "extreme" Marble) and i'm just crazy about them! <3

    This picture demonstrates what I mean about his spine.

    I need to take some new photos of my Borneos. The female just shed for me the first time today and the boy shed about 2 weeks ago, actually. So, I should probably do that soon... Both HAD been sweet as could be from the moment I received them. The female still is, but the boy suddenly started acting schizo a couple of weeks ago. He seems to just be cage aggressive is all from what I can tell, though. He acts fine once you get him out. But, boy does he put on one hell of a show before you get him out! lol :O

    Hahah oh my! At least he settles down out of the enclosure! Phatty gives me some huffs when I actually go and take him out, but that's about it. :) I've gotta take all the snakes out for some sunny day photos sometime, I wanted to do so today but unfortunately it's not a nice day out!

    I should get a pic of his spine, it is very prominent when you hold him and he is draped over something.
