My son gets a python lei (real snake) from Safari Joe.
Ball pythons (Python regius) are found at the edges of the forest lands of Central and Western Africa. They are equally comfortable on the ground and in trees. They are crepuscular, active around dawn and dusk. Called royal pythons in Europe, here in the United States we call them "balls" due to their habit of curling themselves up into a tight ball when they are nervous, their heads pulled firmly into the center. Like most pythons, ball pythons are curious and gentle snakes.

I need to hurry up and get last month's pictures off my computer so i have room to upload and see my latest pix on the computer. Very frustrating. I want to see my latest pix, but now i'm distracted by things from last month i'd already forgotten about. And i must NOT go out anywhere with my camera again until i clear all the memory cards!
Python reticulatus, also known as the (Asiatic) reticulated python or regal python, is a species of python found in Southeast Asia. Adults can grow to over 28 feet (8.7 m)in length but normally grow to an average of 10-20 feet. They are the world's longest snakes and longest reptile, but are not the most heavily built. Like all pythons, they are non-venomous constrictors and normally not considered dangerous to humans, even though large specimens are powerful enough to kill an adult and attacks are occasionally reported.
An excellent swimmer, it has even been reported far out at sea and has consequently colonized many small islands within its range. The specific name is Latin meaning net-like, or reticulated, and is a reference to the complex color pattern."

The snout a a Blood Python (Python curtis) emerges after roughly 60 days of incubation, though several of its clutchmates have already fully emerged.
A close inspection of the snout will show a miniscule sharp point, known as the egg tooth. The egg tooth is something that grows at the tip of the snout of many reptiles and birds to help the hatchlings slice their ways through embryonic membranes and egg shells. Since these snakes lay leathery-shelled eggs, the snakes produce slices with this egg tooth that will eventually allow the snakes to free themselves and begin life outside the egg. They will often spend their first several days after slicing through the shell with little more than their snout poking through as they absorb the last bits of yolk from the safety of the inside of the egg.
Chapter 3 : Cape Tribulation and the Daintree
During a cruise on the Daintree river. Apparently in the cruise before ours, these crocs were seens fighting each other in the middle of the river !
Just received my extension tubes from DealExtreme. As I can't afford a true macro lens for a few hundred dollars, this is a steal at $9. Made a few test shots with all tubes and the 50 1.8, lookin' good.

A Diamond Python or Carpet Snake. These snakes are becoming rare due to predation by Foxes and habitat loss.
Taking some photos, I noticed injuries caused by an unknown animal and realised that he needed some medical attention.
After some excellent co-operation between DELWP and Parks Victoria with assistance from James,Kerry, John, Tom, Wes and Mark, the snake is now on his way to the Vet for some TLC and will then be cared for by a local wildlife carer before being released back where he was found.
**Update**
The snake is now being cared for at Healesville Wildlife Sanctuary.
Python molurus bivittatus (albino).
The Burmese Python (Python molurus bivittatus) is the largest subspecies of the Indian Python and one of the six largest snakes in the world, native to a large variation of tropic and subtropic areas of Southern- and Southeast Asia. They are often found near water and are sometimes semi-aquatic, but can also be found in trees. Wild individuals average 3.7 metres long, but may reach up to 5.7 metres. -- wiki

My friend Keiths huge burmese python, I'm struggling to stand under her weight but she is puppy dog tame!
@charmcityreptile ID's this snake as an albino reticulated python (Python Reticulatus(thanks for the ID!). Retics are the longest snakes in the world, so this guy has a bit of growing yet to do!
Stop by any jewelry counter, snake jewelry is IN this year. The snake was very accustomed to riding her girl, and seemed to be having a great time! (it takes about 8psi, I've heard, applied directly to the blood vessels in the neck to cause unconsciousness.)
