I looked it up and:

Python brongersmai= is for red blood pythons, Malaysian blood pythons, Malaysian red blood pythons, and sumatran red blood pythons.

Python breitensteini= is for Borneo short tailed python

Sorry your snakes are not Borneo Short tailed pythons
there one of the red bloods. take care Nick

Actually they all look like brongersmai to me. The way to tell is by looking under their eyes. Breitensteini have small scales in between their eyes scales and their lip scales like this pic:

Brongersmai have their eye and lip scales touching, with no scales in between like in this pic:

Hope this helps! Judging by their colour and pattern I would say they are brongersmai, although one of them has a pretty unusual amount of tan. They are great looking snakes!

Nice lookin trio you got there!
All three are Brongersmai, red blood pythons. They are also the ones that usually grow the biggest!

Goodluck with them.
