Who's comin with me? :)

@ Dr. Del- I'm thinking they're clutchmates but I'm not sure. I really can't use the pair and just need a lone animal. I actually kinda like the barneck a little bit better than the Southerns. I just wanted one with darker banding.

Why'd I even look at that link??? I'd love me a mangrove someday, so that just added fuel to that fire...and those cribos...

Thanks for the warning - I'm Jones'n for a cribo after seeing Riley's on Triple B TV LOL

Go to 4:40 for Scrub Python. Or watch the whole video... I really enjoyed the Olive Python


There you go Ziggy, someone has to fall in love with a Scrub.

I was actually hoping for a little darker and more pronounced banding Slytherin. Not sure on locality I only know he's a barneck. I was originally looking for a Moluccan but I hear they're basically impossible to find here in the States. Then I saw rhe Southerns and liked those. Now I really like the barnecks too but I'm still on the fence about this guy. He's WC but has been in captivity since January. I was really hoping to find a CB animal.

So glad to see you in the group! Was going to suggest it after I saw this post. There are some really phenomenal, expertly knowledgeable people there.

One thing I am learning is that the scrub community is a small one and people who are enthusiasts are just all in. They will be able to give you some awesome advice. I am also fairly certain one of the members has a gravid female Moluccan.

There are several other people breeding this season, so if you’re after a captive bred animal, you’ve come to the right place. I am peeing my pants waiting to see what David’s projects produce!

@ Slytherin- Great to see some familiar folks in the group. I was already in touch with David and Brandon trying to find something and I guess there's some really cool stuff on the works. I'm not in a rush but I am eager to get my hands on one of those beasts. I'm sure the perfect critter will appear at the perfect time.

That was an amazing video Ricky. I'd seen it once before. He's spot on about the Olive pythons. My male is a moster for food but really chill to handle. I'll admit I'm a wee bit nervous about the temperament of the Scrubs, especially because they're such large animals, but I'm also excited about the challenge. I'm still hoping for a mellow fellow though . My snake keeping has been a progressive journey of slowly working with larger and more challenging species. I started with BPs, then kings, bulls, carpets and an Olive. I'm going to add a boa. I've heard they're pretty chill and I like their size too. Then once I reach the top of Scrub Mountain I think I'll be content and call it a day. I won't need to push the envelope any further. And the only place to go from there would be the Land of the Hots and that's just a bridge too far for me.
