    Re: OMG Burrowing python

    Calibars are the only burrowing pythons I know of, Didnt know they were redesignated, When I worked for a wholesale company we imported them as pythons.... ne who they are a neat species the way they curl up.... The thing with calibars is they eat alot at once....In the wild they will wrap up a whole litter of baby rodents and eat what they want.....

    I had a pair of them like 10 years ago, almost certain they were wild caught. Interesting snakes but I don't think they ate for me the entire time I had them and they were very reclusive. Not very satisfying to keep, that's why I got rid of them. Just my opinion though. I've never kept Sand Boas either but a lot of people love them, I'm sure they're very similar in behavior.
