Matlock pythons
Can anyone give me some information on Matlock pythons? I cannot seem to find any up-to-date information and pictures would be especially appreciated.
Thanks!

They are a species of python that for some reason are well liked by senior citizens.
They are prone to prostate failure, rheumatoid arthritis, dementia, incontinence and like their food pre chewed.
They are nice snakes, but I think a Macklot's python may make a better pet. I'd look into them instead.

Hahahaha.
A simple google search gives a decent number of caresheets....

I think they are also known as freckled pythons so....

I also think BHB produces them, they may have some stuff on their site.

I have a 2.0 Macklot's. They are Awesome snakes. Their feeding response is insane.
If you get them when they are young be prepared to get bitten a lot! My boys were demons for the first year then they chilled out.

Matlock pythons
After quite a bit of research I decided to make the trade. This is my new female cb macklot python.
It seemed like everyone who owned one loved them and said they were worth every bite. I didn't hear a bad thing about them.
She still needs a name but I think she is gorgeous and very tame so far.

Thanks everyone! Her name is Jellybean and she is so sweet. She ate a f/t pinkie without issue and was super sweet today when I had some handling time with her.
I also have fallen in love with the Aussies. I have a blue tongue skink, two carpet pythons, and now the macklot. I would love to add an olive python and a few others.

Re: Matlock pythons
She is Beautiful. I can remember bringing my boys home as little pencil thin worms...
I wish you the best of luck with her!

Thanks! I can't wait to see her once she is all grown up. Do you have any pictures of your guy? I'd love to see pictures of him growing up!

Re: Matlock pythons

When I couldn't find my RBS, I almost settled for a CB Macklots. I always thought they looked amazing and your pictures didn't lie. I don't recall what they sell for out right.

I have been looking to get an Olive python for my Fiancé as a birthday present. We currently have a woma and a spotted he loves. I love your pretty jelly bean though.. Might have to start thinking about Christmas too!

I would love to have an olive python, they are amazing. I have heard great things about how smart they are. I love the way the look.
