drooling blood

SSSSnakes · 02-08-14, 04:42 PM

This was another rescue. The lady said she had 4 Blood Pythons and she wasn't sure what the other snake was. The Bloods are suppose to be 3 male and 1 female, all hets for something, but I did not listen. If the are going to be bred then they will have a surprise when the babies are born. Here is what I picked up.
Blood 1

Blood 2

Blood 3 This one is the only one that needs to be fattened up.

Blood 4

And the unknown snake was a Hog Island Boa

I titled this drooling blood, because I was drooling over the beautiful snakes they were giving up.

All the snake are for adoption, but I do not ship, they must be picked up. The Hog Island Boa I am keeping for myself to add to our shows.

All look to be in pretty good health. All are robust and not obese.

The third "blood" I would question it's lineage. It looks similar to borneo short tail pythons.

It is possible, but in the pet trade Borneo Short Tails are sometimes still called Bloods. Kind a like a common Boa being called a Red Tail.

At first when I read the title of this thread, I thought it was gonna be about a snake actually drooling blood lol.

I love blood pythons. They're one of my favorite python species. Those specimens are gorgeous. Good luck finding them new homes!

I know. It isn't necessarily common knowledge yet. I thought I'd just mention it for those reading.

I never know what to call things. At my job we got in a Short Tail and it was labeled Blood Python. When I mentioned it was a Short Tail, I was told not to be so picky. I guess that is why we use Latin names, to actually ID the snake correctly. Although as I can't speak Latin, I can never pronounce the names correctly. LOL
