Northern White Lipped Python- Picture HEAVY!!! CHUNKY!!

[Painted]

This species has long since needed attention. Wonderful specimen and great job. Maybe they're just misunderstood like every other 'aggresive' species that proved to be tame over the years? I guess I wouldn't know.
Love his bronze and gold colors though, with that beautiful black head and white lips to boot.

I couldn't agree with you more. They are very aggressive babies, but that is mostly due to importing them wild caught- as not many people have the patience to wait for their long earned sexual maturation.
Actual captive bred Northern or Southern white lipped python babies are noticeably less aggressive and I would even compare their attitude of a nippy carpet python.

However, Jumanji is a wild caught animal and despite all the factors that should only heighten his aggression, he has tamed down very well. I think they are very misunderstood and people just don't get the chance to seem them enough. As for his color, I have never loved anything's true appearance (beauty in their genes) more than the Northern White Lipped. Some people hate the gold, but to me it finalized the beautiful sheen they were born to wear proudly.

He has become a very docile, beautiful boy.
Thanks again, everyone.
