About 3 yrs ago if not more I did some research for my first snake after going to the local pet store and requesting what they might be able to get in for me. I ended up falling in love with the information I found on the Childrens Python and how it Is a Great Begginers Snake. The closest relative that the Pet store could get was the Spotted Python. And they were a month old at least. (Problems Problems problems) 3 Yrs later and a lot of trial and errors even though from the get go "she" ate like a champ. I now don’t know what else to do. She’s at least 3 yrs of age. And almost 3 ft later (is that normal?) Yet she’s still VERY slender. Maybe a little thicker than a Quarter. I have looked for information on them (them being Spotted Pythons) but I cannot get a good fix on her and the Pictures. She DOESNT look like a spotted, she LOOKS like a Childrens But HER face DOESNT look like a Childrens Her FACE LOOKS like a Pythons, Regular Balls Python. She doesn’t have the structured face of a Childrens Nor A Spotted Pythons. And she Hasnt lost any of her spots of colors. I know it would be impossible to X breed a Spotted or Childrens with a Ball Python But I am aware that the Childrens and the Spotted can/could be cross bred. Could she be a mixture of the two? Could that be with she’s got such a "box-E" face? Also, she has started stricking witch she has NEVER done. Not even as a Baby, Could she be going through "HEAT" even though that’s more of a feline trait... Im really lost. Does ANYONE have proper Pictures to what a Spotted and a Childrens looks like?? And I say "She" because that was what I requested from the pet store but you know Pet stores do they ever actually get things right. I think she was Maybe 5inches long when I first got her. Please help me. Anyone. She need to breed? Am I doing something horribly wrong now that she is older? |

Is she in Heat? Or lonely? Or is she just going to keep getting more and more agressive as she ages? |

But ther in lies my problem. Mongrel doesnt look anything like your babe. Mongrel’s got a bigger head with big scales on her sides and top and very visible heat pits but the shape is right it’s long like that to the nose or at least it looks long. I wish I could post a picture. She is No where near the color of your girl. Much Darker with a creamy yellow Under belly and Very dark brown almost black splashes of "spots" but she is no where near as Thick as yours. In fact mongrels a baby compared to your beauty. She’s very very slender. Is that normal for a 3 yr old? She’s just reaching or just over 3ft. I have never power fed her but she is a ferocious eater since baby on. Im running out of thoughts Guys. I think Mongrels just that a Mongrel. |
