Blood pythons?

Anyone out there own bloods? I've always admired they're looks. Yes, I am aware they're not the nicest snakes around but I'm not afraid of getting bitten. What is some advice to bloods? Do you blood keepers enjoy them?

I recently acquired one in a trade(she's a sumatran short tailed, not a blood) and she's incredibly mellow. Huffs a bit when in a snake bag, but other than that, she's a doll. I've only had her a week, but she just makes me want another one :)

It all depends on the snake's individual personality, but if they are CBB stock from mellow parents, you shouldn't have problems.

thats good to hear, I came sooo close to taking one home from the show today, very good price on reds, but I'm going again tomorrow. I dont think I'll be able to pass it up this time. XD

The only reason why they have a bad reputation is bc from wc ones. Both my ball and stp try to bite me, but only my bp have ever actually got me out of no where.

They're fun to work with when they try to bite. Keeps you on your toes. :carrot:

Check out EBV's stock, Auburn Reptile Company, and LLLreptiles at the show. Nice sumatrans and bloods

Checked around no black stps. LLLreptiles has a nice borneo. still there when I left before closing. They're pretty small. Auburn reptile has some yearlings and a sub adult sumatrans....and reptile depot had a nice one too...

Well good luck :)

Are we forgetting NERD? Email Kara and see what they have available. They have some NICE animals.

Haha, shouldnt this be in the blood python forum? :D Yes we own them and love them!!

lol yeah I think it was LLL reptiles that I saw the ones at, they were only 59.00 which is in my price range for non-ball python snakes XD I'll most likely be getting one tomorrow

I love mine!!!!!

Jeff Hartwig is a great person to talk to about black bloods.

I own three short tails, and I love em! Mind tend to be talkers, and usually huff when I go to touch one of em, if it's the first time that day.
