Why? Are Royal pythons not usually eight feet?

Royals Pythons are Ball Pythons, Males are normally no larger than 4ft while females can get to 5ft. They do not get to 8ft.

Are you joking?... No they're never going to reach anywhere near 8 feet.. Are you sure your not getting confused with blood pythons? Superficially they look similar, as in short fat bodied snakes but get longer than a royal.

while possible, that would be a really big blood as well :P

as for the OP - a carpet python sounds good for you!

I was thinking they might be thinking of an angolan python.

6-8ft range, heavier bodied, more active than a ball python, try and find a half dwarf burmese python.
OP where are you located?
