    Maybe this will sound like a stupid question, but what is "wild type"?

    Thanks for replying!

    It's what we call "normal" BPs that are not a proven color morph. The more common wild types have the pattern that yours does with some "alien heads" along the sides. The markings that look like an alien head with eyes.

    "Wild type" is simply another name for a "normal". Wild type is how nature intended ball pythons to look like. They are what you TYPICALLY would find in the wild.

    0.1 '09 Normal BP

    I recently saw an add for a bearded dragon. In this add the girl stated that her dragon was nice and thin instead of round, and didn't look all fat and unhealthy like other people's dragons because she didn't feed it as much....

    I didn't agree with that either..

    Poor beardie!
    Beardies are fat bodied lizards and are supposed to be "round" as are ball pythons as I've heard. I've read that BP's are the "fattest" of all pythons, considering their size.

    Yes he is still small, 46cm from snout to tip of the tail. Does anyone know how old he is, considering his size?
    Does he look healthy?
