First of the 07 season

The first clutch of mine to come out and say hello to the world is my clutch of Children's pythons. The clutch consisted of 10 eggs that incubated at 87-88F for 43 days. I just love these little Australian beauties!!

Tyree, it won't be long. With all the support of good people on this forum, I am sure you will have all the info you need to be successful.

Or, with the way the head is cocked, "What you talking 'bout Willis?!"

how cute. got a few questions? whats the care requirements for them? how big do they get? What is their temperment like? and whats the general price for a childrens python? took a glance at your website and am curious about one of the pics.. what snake are you holding. Its the 2nd pic in the 4th row. thanx.

The care requirements are pretty straightforward.
Cool side at 76-78 and warm at about 88F. They are native to Australia so they can get a bit cooler during the winter "hibernation" but nothing like our US natives. They grow to just under 3 ft. in length; a bit smaller than your corns. They are a fairly gentle snake but do have a wicked feeding response. LOL!
Prices can run from $60 - $75 each.

My website is soooooo outdated! I need to get it updated! The pic is of an adult male Ford's boa (Epicrates fordii), native to Haiti.

If you have anymore questions, please feel free to drop me a pm.
