my grumpy boy!

Heres a few photos of my very grumpy boy Dave, he's a 6' white lipped python that will only let me anywhere near him never mind hold him anyhoos...

He's gorgeous! My OH likes White lipped's, I've got to admit, they are amazing looking snakes.

he may grow another foot so around 7' but then he will gradually start putting weight on as he is roughly 1.7kg at the moment and will be around 3 - 3.5kg once fully grown

wow .. he is amazing.. and he doesn't look grumpy to me !!

I like the iridescence of his scales. Very interesting looking snake!

Can we have first pick? lol It's like most of the snakes he wants, there's hardly any around, especially down this way. I'm going to end up resorting to going on 'holiday' to my parents just to buy snakes I think.

Yer course if you wanted one, i've had a few people ask for me to let them no if i manage to breed him, as they want 1 or 2 little uns!
