Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Favorite python

Don't know how this hasn't been said before,

But for docility, inquisitiveness, predictibility, and "intelligence," nothing beats a Papuan python. I like my bloods, I'm fine with balls to look at, everything liasis is great, aspidites are amazing, but at the end of the day, apodora papuana just does it for me.
Then again, so do a lot of things. Every time I think I have found a python I don't particularly like, someone comes along and convinces me otherwise. (See Yasser at Spitfire's absolutely gorgeous IJ/Papuan Carpets).

Ask me tomorrow, and my mind will probably change. There are simply too many wonderful pythons. That said, Papuans are persistent favorites. If I ever acquire some healthy acclimated (or pray, pray CB) Boelens/Blacks, I'm sure they would move up the list too.
 
dude, you're just too funny!!!

LOLzORS!!!



that almost makes it sound like you're doing something naughty to the snake or vice versa. :dgrin:
 
I agree with Saul all of my carpets have a "personality" one of my 3 yo female carpets will actually come to me. I mena I knwo its not a dog or what not but she like to be handled.. She has to be the most tame snake I have delt with...And oh yeah whats sad is I like everyone..till now..lol
 
Scrubs of all kinds, and Moluccan Pythons in particular. No doubt about it. Misunderstood giants that are intelligent, graceful, and awesome.
 
I'm a fan of the some of the nifty little Colubrids, but I really love balls and Borneos/bloods. I'm on my first Borneo short-tail and she is just a doll!
 
Hand's down the RETIC'S! Next would be Burms, Arocks, Anas. The bigger the better.
