Carpet Python
( Morelia spilota mcdowelli )
Mt Cotton, Queensland, Australia
This fella had a big belly filled with probably a rat and was getting no where fast.
This snake went about 6 foot in length.
Aprox 12 month ealier one was filmed eating a juvenile wallaby whole about 4 doors down from where this one was photographed. ( My old back fence )
The ball python or python regius is a nonvenomous python species found in Africa. This is the smallest of the African pythons and is popular in the pet trade, largely due to its typically docile temperament. No subspecies are currently recognized.
The name ball python refers to the animal's tendency to curl into a ball when stressed or frightened. The color pattern is typically black or dark brown with light brown or gold sides and dorsal blotches. The belly is a white or cream that may include scattered black markings.
This python is known for being a picky eater and may not eat for months, particularly during the winter breeding season. Ball pythons will not eat when they preparing to shed.

In 1981 Colt introduced the Python Hunter, made about 2000 of them. In 1983 introduced the Python Silhoutte, only info I could find was that they made about 200, maybe 500 of them, I am going to send to Colt for the letter and find out how many were made. The Hunter and the Silhouette were both custom shop guns, came with the Leoplod scopes with the Leopold / Colt emblem on the scope. The serial number on mine indicates that it was made in 1981, but they weren't out even introduced till 1983. I believe from some research that Colt would take blocks of serial numbered guns from a year into the Custom Shop, and sometimes they were not even built till years later. The only difference between them was the scroll marks on the barrels and the case they came in.
Found that they are selling for about $4000, sometimes in less condition as mine with case and so forth.
Trying to find one for sale? Good luck. You MIGHT see a Hunter for sale online OCCASIONALLY.
Patience... rewards I guess. I occasionally come across these pythons around the area. They're usually coiled in a position like this waiting for a hapless bird to come by.
These snakes can get to a decent size. This one was a reasonable size.
Me and the certificate for the Frank Willison award that I received at the 10th International Python Conference.
A juvenile carpet python we 'unearthed' in the garden yesterday.
Yesterday to 9am we had 60 mm rain and then more through the day. This little guy obviously got washed out of his wintering spot.
He is on the old weldmesh frame we use for the cherry tomatoes in summer, and as they are all finished we decided to clean it off and get ready for next year.
Warwick reached out to move it and saw him wriggle and got a hell of a shock! (P1010306)
Benin. West Africa.
Ouidah
In most parts of the world snakes are feared, but in Benin they are revered. Royal pythons are worshiped in Benin, especially in Ouidah. The good news is that royal pythons are not dangerous, but the bad news is that these sacred reptiles are welcome Beninese households where they are fed when the doors of the temple are opened at night. There is no fear when the locals welcome these slithering pythons into their living rooms like an honoured guest.
The Temple of Pythons is a small room of twelve square meters that houses 50 adult royal pythons.
Contrary what one would think, this posting has nothing to do with the snake, it's the bridge (few details have been posted before).
