Re: Giant morph question?
Mike I've never seen anything but pics. I know of only a few people working with them ( that I know of ) from what I've been told and the pics I've seen they get to be about 1.5 - 2X's larger than a normal Ball python.. the pics I've seen show an adults head and its as wide as almost three adults fingers.
In short they get biggg..
Re: Giant morph question?
They're not a morph. just a locality I believe.
Same with Blood Pythons. Most animals are from Sumatra and get a good size. But there's a couple out there that are of True Malaysian descent and can get even bigger.

Re: Giant morph question?
I know Charlie at RoyalQ has/had one so maybe he'll post pics.
Re: Giant morph question?
They are pretty impressive in person, you rarely come across them, here are some pictures I took of one of them 2 years ago (not mine)

Re: Giant morph question?
A friend of mine has a pair of sub saharans. Both male and female are every bit of 6ft long.
I know we have imported a few over 6000 grams, and i've heard of more over in africa.
Re: Giant morph question?
Wow! I've never heard of those, they are so cool! Are there many breeders who sell them? If so, who?
Re: Giant morph question?

Re: Giant morph question?

Re: Giant morph question?
Hey that Jungle Pastel was sweet but it had a kink? I know the Caramels have them but I didn't know about the Jungle's.

Yes, infact Brian Sharp's Albinos, Axanthics, and Snows come from a "large" bloodline so the majority of his from those morphs generally get bigger than normal. I have a "Giant Line" female that I am growing up right now. They are more difficult to grow up than "normals" it seems, at least with my female, her metabolism seems to be twice that of a normal ball python's.
