ringed pythons?

[alex_33]

Hello, just wondering if anyone kept ringed pythons, they are beautiful snakes but all of the ones i have seen lose their stunning colours as they grow older. I am quite interested in this snake and was wondering if anyone could share some of their photos and experiences with ringed pythons. Thanks in advance

henry piorun has them too but i dont thing they are avalabile right now but it wouldnt hurt to ask as far as i know they fade to a browner color but the black is still jet black i like them and hope to buy a pair in the future

Here's a pic of my female at a year old, as you can see there colour fades rather quick, still a rather stunning animal, the iradesence on hem is amazing

this is a male, you can see the shine on this one,, there a little agressive so as long as your not afraid to get tagged every once in a while, they are a great animal to work with

beautiful snakes Joe! I really like that male, where did you get yours from? How big are they full grown and waht size enclosure do you have them in?

There a small python only getting about 4 or 5 ft, mine were kept in rubbermaids 22in x 18in there a slender snake and pretty active they would probably do good in a cage slightly larger. And I got mine from Henry!

I may buy a pair in the coming month's henry is the biggest breeder i know of on the westcoast and quite possibly the best Dna reptiles also has them i think but i am not sure on that they are usually cheaper then henry too

They are awesome animals, but I really wish they did keep their juvi coloration, I'd have a few. :)
