Hi everybody, I just finished the prototype of ANTARESIA.INFO. If there is anybody speaking German around here you might like to take a look on my new Web-Project. As there were only a few informations availible concerning Antaresia in Europe I decided to set up a website. As I would like...

in an early thread someone was saying that pygmy pythons go for about $1000 to $1500! do you think that would be about right? And does any one here have any experience with them? or seen them advertised before?

Does anyone know why A.perthensis cannot be legally kept in WA? I have always assumed that because A.perthensis originate from WA, they can be kept by private keepers (when legally acquired). I was a bit confused by this news when told by a snake catcher from WA. :roll:
