I hope it worked this time, the big one is the malaysian female whose sick right now.I've only had her barely a month and already had to spend $160 on a vet bill.I'm treating her for an RI,I hope she pulls through, she's a sweatheart no aggressiveness at all.

WOW!!! That girl is huge!!! They all look good.

[Invictus]

WOW! She's enormous!!! Very nice. Are you sure she's Malaysian though? Looks an awful lot like a Bangka Island blood to me. Nonetheless, it's a gorgeous collection of an incredible species to work with.

That Maylasian gal is one big, beautiful screamer!! How long is she and about how heavy? Hope that RI gets outta there.
Good luck!!!

She's definately not a Bangka, the guy I bought her from bought her as a baby malaysian and raised her untill now that I have her.I just got a weight on her 31 pounds, I thought she'd she was bigger than that but I guess not.I tried getting a length on her it was hard so I'm saying really close to 7'.Thanks for the comments guys.Later, Ethan aka fishkiller

They are all awesome. But damm!!! that female is a monster. Great pics.

do ball pythons get that big, or are bloods a bigger species?

[ethan]

Balls don't even get that big, bloods are just a larger species.I had balls but once I found out about bloods, sold the balls and now I only have bloods.They are the best in my opinion.Not too big and not too small.

what did your vet recommend for her RI?

[ethan]

She prescribed baytril, I give her a shot 4 days straight and then everyother day for 7 days.We'll see how it goes, she said to bring her back in for more treatment or possible flush which will be hard to do she says.Hopefully it doesn't go there.I hoped I would have to deal with this, but if she makes it through, it could be a good learning experience.

hope she gets better quickly:)....your whole collection is beautiful!

wow Ethan, they are all beautiful, Ive just recieved my first short tail and I can tell I like this species a whole lot already. One question is that big girl concidered an appropriate wieght, she looks HUGE. ;)

[ethan]

Thanks guys for your comments, I'm not sure whats concidered an appropriate weight would be for a snake that big, I just know shes not to thin and not too fat that her scales are spread apart.I've read thats an over weight snake.

Hey Ethan,
Glad you found the site, and hope that big girl gets better soon. She's outstanding! So the guy that sold her to you said she is a mainland form, and not a Sumatran? Awesome if that is the case. -Angel

[ethan]

Yeah thanks, lots of bloods owners here to talk about bloods, they all seem cool so far, no jerks.Thats what I'm told, malaysian, so thats what I'm going by, there's no other way to tell I don't think.Thanks for sharing the site, talk to you later bro.

[axwielding1]

Love that big gal.. I have a sumatran blood that looks similar to the one in your photo.
I also remember "fishkiller" from the kingsnake forum.. Got alot of knowledge from there to help me to decide to purchace into the Blood thang...

Hey Ethan,
Outstanding find! She'd better get well for you, there aren't a lot of them Mainland types around these days.
