Re: Malaysian Blood Pythons.

Congrats! You'll be hooked now. Once I bought my first blood, they quickly became my favourite snake.

I read a little higher up in the thread about Borneo's (Breitensteini) being smaller than Malasians (Brongersmai). I think that as a general rule, that's probably true. At the same time, I recently got a baby Borneo from a breeder who told me that Momma Breit weighs about 40 lbs. None of my adult Brongs have ever gotten that big.

Have fun with these guys! They're a real treat!

Thanks everyone. Josh i been hook on Bloods, Carpets and Rainbows for almost 20 years now.

I read in a old Reptile Magazine once of a Rose Boa that had been in captivity for 60 years and they believe it was at lease 2 years of age when found. If memory serves me right it at a State University in Nevada, or Arizona. I know it was one of the south western states. I need to look and see if i still have the magazine.

Awesome. Clearly I don't need to tell you about their charm; after 20 years you could probably tell *me* about it .

Enjoy them!

Re: Malaysian Blood Pythons.

I had heard about the 47 year old one but not the 60 year old! Thats incredible. Just goes to show you how important good husbandry really is. Thanks for the information.
