Theres a couple people on here that have a couple different sub species of scrubs. Just figure that your snake is going to end up the size of a respectable retic. They can get real big 15' is not uncommon. Do allot of research before you deside on that one. Plus from what I have read they are much like other Ausie Pythons with a sometimes questionable disposition.

Here are a couple of pics for you of my Moluccan Python (morelia clastolepis). These kids are closely related to the scrubs.







Don't let his seeming docileness fool you... he is 6 ft of mad moluccan terror. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Well I have talked to Yasser at spitfire reptiles. He knows a lot about Scrubs and I don't think I feel like dealing with the hassels of taming them(if they even can be tamed). From what I have heard is they are extremely defensive and should by keep only by those who don't mind being bit a lot. I have put some money down on a Super Dwarf Reticulated Python. I thought I could handle a scrub, but after seeing a couple of pictures of bites from small 4' ones I decided to change my mind.
PS they have given some the worst bites I have ever seen.

you dont think a retic isnt going to give you a nasty bite?
Some of the worst bites I have recieved were from medium sized retics.
I had Tanimbar and Bar neck scrubs and were bit by both, and neither type gave me a worse bite than a retic.
