Talking New Addition - Taiwan Beauty - Male

Well here is one of the new babies I picked up at the show. Approx 3', very friendly, male and he has already taken down his first rat for me. Pics of the female to follow when I get a chance.










thanks for looking

Jim

NICE!!!
We have a male Tai, he's 2 now, awesome temperment, eats great, and he is the same color as yours, but "Teko" is now 5ft, 10 inches! Be ready my friend, they grow like weeds!!!
Right after we bought this snake, we read a post where one gal was using a Turkey roasting pan for a water dish... my girlfriend got a look at two HUGE Taiwans at a reptile show, (12 ft.),
and said, "I said I wanted a big snake, but this is scary!"
But all turned out well and good, she loves to hold him, he is in a 85 gallon tank right now, but we are already looking for a BIGGER, TALLER cage for him next year

I recently aquired a male that's about 5 years old and is just under 7 feet (I think he was underfed) and a yearling (13 months old) that is now at 4'5". They really do grow incredibly fast... and I can't believe how tame they are (although, they are FAAAAAAST and a big one can be a real handfull). Lots and lots of fun !!!

<laugh> Taiwans don't get 12ft. The largest known beauty I think was a caver almost hitting 10ft.

Sorry, this is Katt posting.
