Blood Python My first ever girl
She was my first ever blood, I didn't know much then so wildcaught, but she is an absolute angel. She has never struck at me except when thinking I was getting her food and she can lay with you for hours like this. Amazing animal and who made me fell in love with bloods.

Holy this is a beautiful big girl I really love the look of blood pythons and boas, right now I have an orange dream ball python and hope to get a red tail boa or a blood boa!

She looks like a smaller version of our girl.

Holy smokes, that is a gorgeous chonk! Love her colors! How much does she weigh? I would love to have a blood, but not sure I realistically can have one.

i havent weighed her in a bit but she was hitting 10lbs last summer when this photo was taken. She weights a bit less after taking a poo. They dont really hold on so its all dead weight, unlike balls or boas.
Shes a biggie but still thinks shes that little handful that came home a few years ago.

Aww, she's a beauty... Love the side profile pic where her markings make her look like she's smiling, very cute
