At 1 year 3 months old, a male, SD x Dwarf x Mainland reticulated python is very manageable. at least mine is.
I took these pictures to show folks, that a snake in the 6' plus range is still easy to handle.
When I use the term "one hander" this is what I mean.
He's not heavy, and when he's calm he's a breeze to handle. I'll be very curious to see where he's at after he hits the 2 year mark.
If you know who you're buying from, what the genetics of the snake are and what your own limitations are, you certainly should be able to keep and maintain this species.
