>>For a python, it would definately have to be a Morelia oenpeliensis.

Nice choice on the Oenpellii, I would love to see those colour
changes .
Are they in any private collections in The States yet??

Sorry Telefrag, I'm afraid that I am not sure about their venomousity. They are usually put in books on hots, but probably they aren't very venomous like other homolapsines. It should have been "warm", rather than "quite hot", I guess.

Amen! Homolapsines are cool and easy to care for? Do you have many homolapsines? I only have one E. enhydris at the moment , but my friend recommended me H. buccatta.

Cheers!

Since Johnny took my Basin Emerald I want Blackhead Pythons. And hopefully this summer I'm going to buy a pair. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Mmmm.

One of those black and white Ball Pythons (Axanthic?).
A black Ball Python
Pie Bald BP
Super Tiger Retic (a nice one, hehe)
A nice deep red Blood Python
A Kisatchie Corn snake

I'm sure there are more. But those are just off the top of my head. Of those, I can't really tell you which is THE top of my list. All tied for first.

Notice my attraction to Pythons? Hehe.

LOL @ Ben [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img] (Thanks Rev!!)

I've been dreaming of an albino Retic (literally). Soon as I get into a house rather than an apartment, (and move to a county where they are legal while I'm at it) a baby 0.1 will be mine!! In my dreams, never to become a reality: Bothriechis Schleglii [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img] -Juggalo

I'd want Thulsa Doom's pet snake that Conan chopped the head off of. Of course I wouldn't be able to feed anything smaller than an elephant, but this after all a dream. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img]

Julius, are you going to be breeding these? I would think that they'd be extremely marketable, since you wouldn't have to pay for their food or anything. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif[/img] I'd buy one..... hehehe.

As for my dream snake.... right now I'd be ecstatic to own something very similar to the SOM.... Swerve's beautiful girl!

Cool, I really like the Enhydris, some Cerberus rychops would be cool too, but as your probably already aware, most herps exported from S.E.Asia havent fared to well in the U.S.

I just have Erpeton, but I have been toying with the idea of picking up those albino H.buccatta from Ben Siegel, but I dont have a tank ready for them, and I like to have my aquatic herp set ups going for at least a month before adding the critter.
Just been too busy with other things, sadly.

If you can find H.buccatta, let me know. ( I promise not to snag them out from under anyone hehe!)
yah, its really hard to say, several papers I have read on them say they are known ophistoglyphs, but there are no recorded bites, or the reactions of a bite anywhere that im aware of (nor the writers of several pieces on them)

But anyway.

Glad to know there is another on the site with similar tastes, we'll have to talk later.

And the Cody wants a Dice Snake. *shrug* I can't find any good pics of it or anything. I'm assuming it's not even kept in captivity, aside from zoos or somesuch.

Yeah. I dunno.

Homalopsians are often avoided because of their aquatic nature, but that is, after all, what makes them special. How are you planning on keeping the H. buccatta? I'd like some ideas on aquaterrariums to improve my set-ups. I'm pretty bad at designing tanks and stuff.

Yep, I guess many imported snakes, especially from SE Asia over such a distance don't do very well in the US. Then, homalopsians are rarely bred and often w/c, so that's a drawback. C. rychops is another great homalopsian. You've got Erpetum? I'd love some too. They are just such unique snakes.

Great to meet you Tele!

Hmm...
I would have to say it's a three-way tie:

Eastern indigo (I'm on a waiting list for next year's babies)
Snow boa (I'll have to wait until my double hets produce)
Albino olive python (yes, they do exist)

bensnacks · #40 (**permalink**) 10-28-2002, 10:19 AM

There's someone here trying to sell Olive's he claims
are het for albino, females $5000 & females $8000.

Doesn't seem to be having many enquiries, they've been up
for sle for close to six months & the prices have dropped from
$8000 and $12000!! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img]
