    I've only seen a handfull of bloods in my time compared to some of you but I wanted to share this picture of a blood being sold on kingsnake right now. It's just downright huge!:O

    Well I haven't seen a whole lot in person...and the ones I saw weren't nearly as big as that one! Care to share pictures of yours? I like bloods. :)

    Big, but not "downright huge" by any means. Not for a blood...

    What's 'huge' for a blood? I thought that was pretty big but, like I said...I don't have the experience with bloods...

    Acording to VPI they can get 8'+(I think thats it) but I would be amazed if I ever seen one that size.

    wow nice pics, i dont know the first thing about bloods, but to look at them for as hefty as they look it seems they would be longer. they look short and fat for lack of better term. is that typical for that breed? their color and patterns look sweet.

    Bloods are extremely heavy bodied boids.. they are prone to obesity as well, but mine are all muscle I assure you. :)

    Re: Now That's a large BLOOD!
    Yeah, From the pictures it looks like they have a really nice store... All I know is I'm wanting a blood now... :( But I want some more ball pythons...:( ahh geez.... It's killing me...why do I want so many differen't snakes...lol :)


    I'm starting to wonder what my house is going to look like 10 years from now with all the snakes I'll have at that time...Anybody else think about that?
    My snake hobby is becoming more an addiction than an actual hobby...I'm feeling the need to keep spending and investing in more snakes lol...

    Re: Now That's a large BLOOD!
    yeah some nice pics there everyone that posted them. I have a male about the same size as that 1st one and I have personally seen specimens 8ft + that were extremely large but its not commmon to see them that big at all.

    One of mine is in shed at the moment but after he has shed I will post a few pics up as its been a while since I last posted him on here.
