Hey i was wondering if i could keep coastals in a outdoors aviary all year round in the sydney area? I could also provide supplementary heating if required?

So im tossing up wether to get a second snake or not, I currantly have a Stimsons Python. I need to know some things about both Jungle pythons, Bredl's Pythons and Costal Pythons, these are what im tosing up between for my second snake. First, how big do they both get, on average? and which...

which states are you allowed to catch wild animals?

WARNING ANOTHER NOOB QUESTION. My Amity seems to be able to tolerate being handled but as soon as I put her back on her enclosure she seems to try to get away from me REALLY FAST. Like if snakes had legs, she would be the equiv to an Olympic runner, and could pass for at least a bronze medal...

Alright, fess up! :lol: Personally I'd lock myself in the laundry & let the snake finish me off. How embarrasing. I wonder what was said when they phoned 000 ....."gasp, gasp, gasp" ...not a good look for the hobby. Woman calls triple-0 after pet python wrapped itself around her neck -...

Thinking of building a custom enclosure for my Coastal carpet which i'm wanting to be able to fit her in when she's fully grown. I'm thinking of reverting a TV cabinet or something similar and since I have no idea what I'm doing with DIZYZ projects I was after some help on how I would approach...

Mine did this morning for the first time (and hopefully last) at about 4am. I was fast asleep and woke up out of instinct I guess, then heard a noise and went over to inspect to find Amity was 3/4 through a hole in the wall. I grabbed her tail and tried to slow her moving down while I tried to...

Hi all I'm a new snake owner. I have a hatchling coastal and she refuses to eat. I've tried frozen (thawed obviously) and I've tried live pinkies. She strikes but will not coil. And with the live pinkie she just sensed it and that was it. I've done tongs and tried leaving it in her feeding tank...

Adopted her today and apparently she is full coastal, but i'm just confirming. Never seen a coastal with such vibrant yellows on her (Photos don't really justify/show her yellow). Can anyone confirm this? Thanks in advance

just like to say, when i was thinking about getting a water python, pet shops, reptile breeders, friends who own snakes, had all told me not to get a water python because of the "natural" aggression. i went out and bought a hatchling, wasn't even a month old, he was in shed and was hating the...

As many know, I adopted a female yearling Coastal a few days ago. Upon purchasing, the owner told me she was due for an upgraded enclosure pretty soon, and so I am about to start planning ASAP before she gets overly big. I don't have measuring tape handy, so don't know the exact measurements...

I purchased a Coastal Carpet Python the other day and have just attempted handling her today. I noticed she is rubbing her head/skin on me rapidly, and seems to also do the same on her substrate while she's in her enclosure... does anyone know what this is? I googled around and read that's what...

A friend emailed this. They filmed it today in their backyard near Byron. It's a .mov file which can be played using Media Player and is about 3.5Mb. The main bit is toward the end of the video. The download is safe. I've placed it on my work server: http://goo.gl/i1NxMz Mark.

Hey guys. I'm really new to all this. I was never ever considering breeding snakes but it turns out I have a mated pair. several months ago the female laid and has been very good at looking after her eggs so I left her to it. they are in an outdoor enclosure and are really a hardy pair...

Hey everyone, Just curious about the colouring of this little hatchling, the parents are a dark green and this hatchling and about 6 others are a real light brown. Any info would be great.

I have a large enclosure currently measuring 1500 long X 1300 height X 600 deep. I was wanting to make it into two separate enclosures. At this stage, to house centralian pythons. My question is this: because of the type of snake, would I split it horizontally or vertically? Horizontally to...

(asking on behalf of someone else) Hi, my breeder is having trouble feeding his hatches. 2 are excellent feeders, the other 4 have not eaten. They have shed and are just over 2 weeks old now. Whenever offering them food, they tend to look intimidated. Some ignore the pinky while others strike...

Hi all, I have here a coastal who was rescued after the driver thought they had run it over. I have examined the dude fairly thoroughly and come to the conclusion, it wasn't in fact run over, just looked that way. Anyhow, this snake is missing it's tail from a few scales below the vent, my query...

Hi all. I'm in the process of having a new home built for my 5yr old Coastal Carpet Python and have been considering using LED lighting with daytime (white) and moonlight (blue). As far as I can work out he doesn't need UV so I figured 2hrs blue then 5hrs white then 2hrs blue might look quite...

Hi All, We have a Coastal Carpet Python who loves soaking in his water bowl. He doesn't have mites and his temperatures seem okay (although his enclosure is too small for him. He's about 2.5m and is in a 4' vivarium. We're having a new one built (1000wx600dx1800h) and I was thinking of...

Looking to buy a nice, informative book on keeping carpet pythons, specifically Coastals. Any reccomendations? Also do I just get these from general book stores?

First of all, thanks in advance for any advice. Second of all, I've got a sick snake and I'd rather only hear from people who have dealt with a similar problem before, or similar experience. (I'd rather not get bogged down by helpful guesses). Last year, I adopted an adult coastal carpet...

Hey all, ran into a bubba python sleeping on some road going down to a spot I critter hunt at (invertebrates, no herps etc). I can narrow down the ID's on plenty of inverts but am crap at telling between the different carpet pythons(coastals, inlands and scrubbies). Sorry the pics aren't...

Hey everyone, I am thinking of changing my coastal's enclosure up a bit.. Right now there is a big stick straight up the middle so she can get high and low and I a rock to get up on.. Do they like plants and other things in their enclosure? Any ideas/pictures of your enclosures would be...

Hi All. I've got a clutch of Coastal Carpet eggs that were laid on 24th December all nice and healthy looking with vines showing when candled. They have been incubated at about 31 degrees 80 precent humidity. A few days in, the eggs stared to sink a little but still looked healthy. A couple...

What's your personal preference? I nearly forked out a few hundred for a nice display, but saw people online keeping them in plastic tubs. I mean, it's not like they move much (snakes), so now I can't see the point of keeping them in a nice display tank. Lizards I can understand, but snakes are...

Who's going??? Who's not????? I'll be there with bells on......plan to get there at opening unlike last year and missed out on all the good stuff. A year older into the hobby now and a year more experienced so should be able to embrace the experience that much more and hoping to catch up with...

Hi A friend at Roma, QLD found this in her yard and posted it on Instagram. I can see it's a python but is it possible to narrow it down. Another shot shows the overall length to be around six feet. Thanks, Mark.
