Fun Fact: Despite the number of Ball Pythons I have, they are actually not my favorite snake! That title belongs to the Macklot’s Python. Specifically, my boy Darwin!

A little something different! Amongst all the Ball Pythons and my small colubrids collection lives this little beauty. My original dream snake; the Macklot's Python! Tiny man doesn't have a name yet, but I adore him. I could sit and look at him for days. <3

Just a quick shot of the Macklots Python which I've just drove a 7 hour round trip to pick up!
Water Python - Liasis mackloti
Liasis mackloti (Pythonidae) is a semi aquatic species, that can live comfortably out of water. The back has an oily blue-grey sheen, and the belly is yellow, especially anteriorly. These pythons, which usually grows to about 2-2,5 m, get a bad reputation for being aggressive.
This species occurs in Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, and north coastal Australia.
