A captive Children's python (Antaresia childreni) eating a dead rat. She dragged it into her little hidey-hole, and I thought she had eaten it. But a few minutes later the rat appeared outside. She must have had difficulty trying to swallow it in the confines of her box, so she moved outside where she could finally eat it.

TAXONOMY
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Subphylum: Vertebrata (chordates with backbones)
Class: Reptilia (turtles, crocodilians, snakes, lizards and tuatara
Order: Squamata (scaled reptiles)
Suborder: Serpentes (snakes)
Family: Pythonidae (pythons)
Genus/species: Morelia viridis
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS: Adults are green with a distinct ridge of scales that is usually white to yellow in coloration and forms a broken or continuous line down the length of the body.
Ventrally, the scales are generally yellow. Juveniles may be either bright yellow or brick-red. They have series of white blotches edged in black or brown. A white streak edged in black runs from the nostril through the eye and to the back of the head.
Average length of 1.5 m (5 ft); with the largest up to 2.2 m (7.2 ft).
DISTRIBUTION/HABITAT: Found in the Mainland New Guinea, its offshore islands, and in eastern Indonesia and in the northeast Cape York Peninsula of Australia. Found mainly in moist forests from lowland to mid-montane altitudes.
DIET IN THE WILD: They are nocturnal hunter when larger nocturnal prey are active as well. M. viridis changes color when it changes its diet from small reptiles and invertebrates to rodents and birds in the rainforest canopy.
REPRODUCTION: M. viridis exhibit some maternal care by brooding their eggs before they hatch. Females have been observed coiling around their clutches. They will often shiver and contract their coils, apparently to produce metabolic heat and thus maintaining a temperature, which ranges from 84 to 88 degrees Fahrenheit.
Yellow and red individuals averaging 30.5 cm (12.8 inches) in length hatch out of 6 to 32 eggs in captivity but colors are separate on different islands.
PREDATORS: Main predators of green tree pythons are rufous owls, black butcherbirds, and an assortment of diurnal raptors.
CONSERVATION: IUCN Red List Least Concern (LC)
Threats: It is becoming increasingly popular in the pet trade.
REMARKS: Each color stage appears to provide camouflage suitable to its immediate habitat. As a young snake, the red or yellow color blends in better in forest gaps or edges, where smaller animals reside. Adult green coloration blends in best in the closed canopy of the rainforest, where larger prey live.

Little babies were popping out of the possum's pouch and everything... from here on in we'll refer to them as hors d'oeuvres :D
Photos taken by my mate Matt on his camera phone.
Luckily he called me and I told him to make sure the group of people watching (and almost vomiting) DID NOT INTERFERE with what was happening. Snakes need to eat too!
a baby ball python, the latest addition to the family! Loves crawling into people's pants and cute mice.
I do not like snakes so when a friend from church asked me to make a snake cake for someone who does not like snakes I was taken back. Worse, the person is her hubby and the Youth Pastor! He loves to play pranks on his younglings so this is the perfect payback. The cake inside is a chocolate cake with white buttercream. Fondant is chocolate and I hand painted with gel color, petal and luster dust. It freaked him out I was told.
This Python was sunning itself on the dirt road before rapidly doing a 180° turn and disappearing into the scrub. I was able to take a reasonably accurate measurement and it was 3.5 - 4.0m long or about 11.5 - 13.0 ft.. At its widest part its diameter was about 15 cm (6 in.), possibly slightly larger. At this size it would be a female.
Die Pythons sind eine Familie von Schlangen aus der Überfamilie der Pythonoidea. Aufgrund von körperlichen Merkmalen wurden sie lange mit den Boaschlangen als „Riesenschlangen“ zusammengefasst. Aktuelle genetische Untersuchungen lassen hingegen an einer unmittelbaren Verwandtschaft der beiden Familien zweifeln. Wikipedia
PYTHON is a 21st century chair for cafes and restaurants, Internet cafes as well as for reception-rooms with a chair back that holds your jacket like a coat-hanger without it falling on the floor or beeing crumped
PYTHON’s special construction with enlarged thickness in the curve gives very high strenght to the chair making it suitable for regular usage in public spaces
PYTHON collection includes three chairs - PYTHON, PYT and stackable PYT bar chair. PYT has the same shape and construction but without the high back. It suits very well together with PYTHON and allows you to play with forms and colours in the interior.
Both - PYTHON and PYT - are offered also with upholstered seat pad
PYTHON collection is available in different natural wood veneers - birch, beech, maple, cherry, walnut, oak, zebrano, wenge. It comes clear lacquered or in wide range of stained finish as well as covered with matted white or black melamine
PYTHON, PYT and PYT bar is stackable up to 8 pieces
Tested according to DIN EN 1728, DIN EN 13761, DIN 68 878 for contractual use in LGA Qualitest GmbH Furniture Test Institute.
Python Reticulatus
Non venimeux (aglyphe) mais potentiellement mortel pour l'homme par constriction
Répartition : sud-est de l'Asie
Taille adulte : plus de 8m, c'est le plus long serpent du monde
Biotope : il habite les forêts tropicales près de l'eau
Particularités et mode de vie : ce python extrêmement puissant est un grand prédateur. Il peut ingurgiter d'énormes proies mais peut aussi rester plus d'un an sans manger. Braconnés pour leur peau magnifique, les grands spécimens deviennent très rares dans la nature.
Régime alimentaire : gros mammifères, oiseaux
Reproduction : espèce ovipare, 30 à 100 oeufs couvés par la mère

I got a problem with the snakes that are crawlin
Through my area when the darkness has fallen
And momma told me that they love to bite
They stab you in the back no shame that's right what what
I keep my distance cause they're makin me crazy
Stealin from me you know those fuckers are lazy
"Do you like how it feels
To be bit in the neck by the snake that kills
Do you know how it feels to be stabbed in the back then watch the blood spill
I don't like how it feels check it"
"Snakes in the Knapsack
Lie to lead you astray
Snakes in the Knapsack
Force to make you betray
Your innermost truths hid away"
"Concoction of malicious lies
deep inside the general despises
himself... listen to the flute play
another reptile in line
Snakes without grass cannot hide"

Genus/species: Python reticulatus (Pythonidae)
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS: Normally colored reticulated pythons have several pigments: melanin (blacks), and xanthins (yellows) amongst other more subtle colors. Lemondrop is a “lavender albino” which is the same thing as a “tyrosinase positive albino” (t-positive) which have the inability to complete the synthesis of melanin but can produce other melanin related pigments such as various shades of brown grey and red resulting the “lavender” color. A “normal albino” (t-negative) reticulated python is yellow and white with pink/red eyes. Melanin and other melanin pigments areas are pure white but non-melanin pigments are present giving alternate colors (xanthines produce yellows). To make matters more complicated different albino snakes may have mutations giving them additional color morphs.
Our albino American Alligator, (Claude) Alligator mississippiensis is a “normal albino” (t-negative) with no melanin or non-melanin pigments making him pure white. If you google “t-positive albino” or “tyrosinase positive albino” you can find a lot more information on this condition.
(Albino Appearance Ref. Nicole Chaney Biologist II, California Academy of Sciences for basic albino information)
DISTRIBUTION/HABITAT: Myanmar and India, across Southeast Asia and on many of the islands of the Philippines and Indonesia.
Found on the ground, in caves or in trees and they have adapted to
living in towns and cities.

One million pixels (1000x1000), and one million unique colours. Image generated by a python script - I'll add it below. One million photo views seems like a lot, and has taken nearly 12 years for my little collection.
