Pythons,, three different kinds.
Of the 4 snakes we have here, 3 are pythons.
Two of the three are semi arboreal and rather busy and one is very terrestrial and fairly inactive. All are beautiful.
Here is a semi interesting look at them in separate photos.
The first snake ever. My son's royal, Hunter is coming up on seven years old.

Reduced pattern and somewhat of a cool looking normal.
The third snake, (number two was a boa constrictor) is a coastal carpet python "mutt". This snake is very active and likes to climb. She handles very well and seems actually "nice" if you can add that tag to a snake.
Jewel is shown here having a spin on the barbell.

Finally, there is another species from another continent.
The first two snakes are from the African and Australian land masses, but this guy is found in Asia/Malaysia/Indonesia.
Python Reticulatus.
He's a Tiger morph which I believe was an anomaly first found in the wild and acquired by Karl Herman and then bred and rebred. The color is similar the coloring of the royal.

It is always amazing to see the different colors and patterns of various species.
I like to look at them all side by side and study their similarities and differences.

I have a BP and a Borneo STP and It is amazing to compare and contrast the differences and similarities.
I like the species you have.
I've always liked the short tailed pythons.

You're a good man!
Always supportive and I like what you have cooking at your place.
I think getting a dwarf/super dwarf Retic would be something you'd like, you have me on the carpet end of things, and carpets are simply one of the best species out there!

Thanks for the kind words.
For now, I see my Olive Python as my “Retic”. Other than being extremely cage defensive, she seems to have qualities and personalities similar to Wallace, Caesar, and Gerald. Plus her size may end up being similar as well. Besides, I am totally out of room. I’m considering getting rid of the guest bed and armoire to make room for more enclosures; the real sign of a snake addict!
