Re: Hello, seeking advice on new python

Hmm so two say aru scrub. Figures. I take it they are not a four or five on difficulty scale like the pet shop claimed? At least if thats what she is she wont get huge. I handle her with ease right now...our irian cross bit the heck out of me yesterday, hes been having a rough shed and quite cranky. Ill keep handling her as much ad possible to avoid her behavior deteriorating is all i can do i guess.

Re: Hello, seeking advice on new python

As far as care goes, they are pretty easy. Your temps are good, they don't need a whole lot of humidity, provide a humid hide, and a nice sized water dish, I found that mine would soak prior to shed. They are easy feeders.
For handling I had mild success if I washed my hands in cold water prior to handling, and wore a sweatshirt. Keep her away from your face. I had 2 face tags from my pair. There should be pics on here somewhere.

i have found that some Irians require a little more humidity,than other Carpet Pythons

that said i have an Irian,that has 1 or 2 bad sheds in the 2 years ive had her,although nothing has chaged regards her husbandry

its only Irians that have ever acted this way with me

cheers shaun
