    Rich are You feeding Live or F/T ?? and if that are F/T did You have big trouble to convince them to take it??

    I'm asking because I'm thinking about Spotted pythons and they are pretty much same like Childrens just little bigger :)

    They been fed F/T since their first meals. They switch very easily no problems.

    Drop in a f/t over night and check back in morning.

    I agree with boanerges, I don't know anything about them either, but they seem like pretty cool little constrictors. Indeed nice pick up. :)

    Try them out they have same heating requirements as ball pythons. Just dont get as big.

    Yep i was even thinking to keep them i the same rack with my YB.. I have 30qt RBI rack and they sell dividers so You can make 2 15qt cages from one tub.. I think That will be perfect for the beginning.... I least Hope so...

    15qt is too big for hatchlings. They need to be in very small setups for a good 6 months after hatching.

    He dont have any yearlings up for sale. All are hathclings still on pinkies.

    I work there and seen them all and some are larger than others. I think theres a few that would do fine in 6qt tubs no problems.
