This is a female Striped Southern scrub we are raising to breed to our hypomelanistic male in about two years. She is about 7 feet now but her mate is only around 5 feet.
Both are the only ones known to exist in captivity today.
Eventually there will be some morphs in the scrub world if all goes well with these two.
Hope ya like!

Very nice scrub! How is the male & female for temperment? I've heard they usually have a real mean streak.

The "only ones known to exist in captivity" eh? So you've talked to every herper on the earth, and they all concur? Not everyone puts their herps on the net, ya know. Unless of course yours are W/C and illegally imported, since Australia does not allow the export of Scrubs. Not something you should be boasting about on the net! :D
Nonetheless, good luck with the project.
Yasser,
She's amazing! Good luck with her! :D
Invictus,
Not all scrubs are from Australia. As well as many of the scrubs you will find offered for sale are legal imports from Indonesia.

That is a gorgeous snake, Yasser! Nice to see you posting here. You have an amazing collection.
Invictus,
Lindsay is correct; Scrub Pythons are found in many geographical locations besides Australia, and are legally imported from those locations with some frequency.
Please do a bit more research in future before you decide to berate a dedicated keeper who has VAST experience in comparison to your own.
Cheers!
Simon
Absolutely gorgeous animal!! Good luck!!

Simon & Linds - I was mostly being sarcastic there. It was early morning, and in general, I just don't like people saying "only ones that exist in captivity", because they don't know. (Added to which, you have NO idea how many times I've heard that.) That's like me saying I have the largest corn snake in captivity. I don't know that to be a fact. That's all I'm saying there. I apologize for how catty it came across though.
Real beautie!!!! Good luck with the project.
