Not your average Joe...

Quickie pic of TBC Bazooka Joe - a pink Bangka Island locality blood python. I can't wait to get him out into some natural sunlight to show off his true colors...fluorescent lights don't do him much justice.

This fellow is such a sweetheart of a snake too, super docile & fun to work with. LOVIN' these bloods & short-tails! :D

Wait...this isn't a support group? You know...support your addiction?! ;) We're addicts over here, too. :D

And thank you! We loooooove sharing these critters with folks who truly appreciate them. :) It's nice to see more & more dedicated blood python fans out there!

At the risk of sounding stupid I tried looking this up first but can't seem to find an answer are blood pythons ball pythons? or not even close?

Tori,

Blood pythons are a heavy-bodied, mid-sized Indonesian python species, Python brongersmai. They're in the python genus along with ball pythons, but are related more along the lines of "third cousins twice removed." ;)

Blood pythons are closely related to the two short-tailed python species, the Borneo short-tailed python (Python breitensteini) and the Sumatran short-tailed python (Python curtus).

Great question! :)

K~

Wow! I bet he is gorgeous in the natural sunlight.

What a hottie. ;)

Wow! Handsome fella ya got there! :gj:

Love the name and the color on him Kara :gj: :gj:

Thank you! :) I think he looks bigger because he's all coiled up. This insular locality of blood python seems to be slightly smaller than their mainland counterparts. B-Joe is around 4.5' in length and weighs 10 lbs, and he's a 5 year old animal. :D

Hes tiny then! lol well he sure looks big in his pic though haha
