    It was warm out today so I took this little one out for some pictures. The iridescence on her is just amazing. I did go big or go home with her lol!

    Congratulations, I love those guys. There is a local woman who breeds these and I'm always tempted to pick up a pair but I know I'd need to spend a bundle on caging first AND find the room. Still, I can dream.

    Beautiful new addition Lindsay. Olives are one of my favorite snakes even though they get a little too large for me as a keeper. I'm really looking forward to seeing your snake's progression. Please keep the pics coming! :D

    Yeah ill have my garage done and have the room for her cage by the time she's that big thankfully.

    She's so far been really easy getting in and out of the cage. As she grows learning her habits will hopefully keep me from to many feed response issues lol 😁

    I did find a localish cage manufacturer that isn't crazy priced for the big cages and they are nice! I think he had 8' for 600 or so which compared to others wasn't bad

    Right now the room would be the bigger issue. Something would have to go first. I'd probably have to get rid of my Burms but I'm not quite ready to do that yet.

    Yeah I know the feeling on that. Mainly ball pythons, boas and carpets over here but our room is packed. Luckily qt had a room for a small enclosure for the time being while she's in there

    Mark,
    Is it Sonja K?

    I love olives too. Space and wife are not in my favor. She does or used to have water pythons so I thought they may be close.

    OP. That is a beauty!! Envious over here!!

    Yup, it's Sonja. She also had some really nice Barrons Racers that I was looking at. I'd probably go with the Olives first though, her adults are really puppy dog tame.

    That's what sold me on them is everything I've read said the adults are calm once out of the cage but can be a little feisty in.

    I'd love an olive. Probably my favorite other than Papuan olive. I don't know the average adult size but don't think a 48" X 30" X 20" would be big enough to to house one. That's as big as I have and can't get another. My only option would be a cousin water Python and hope for similar set of traits.

    Your olive will be your top animal always if I had to bet. Really neat looking the more I check the pictures you posted.

    Lovely! I have a 2014 Female Olive Python, and I still need to work with her more. She is just now starting to not strike at me every time I walk in the room, and we brought her home in October! lol

    I purchased my girl from Forrest Fanning. I am probably going to take her out tomorrow and attempt pictures, and probably have a decent amount of blood drawn getting her out of the cage. :p

    That's who I got mine from as well 😊 mine will pose up but not typically strike at me when I walk by her cage. She hooks out pretty easily as well right now.

    It will be great to watch the two grow up together! I will try and have my boyfriend snap some pics next time we have her out :)
