Congratulations, your spotting has been featured in the Project Noah blog! http://blog.projectnoah.org/post/50919877603/pythonidae-the-pythons
Just for your information, the reticulated python (and the Timor python) were put into their own new genus a few years back and the species name is now Broghammerus reticulatus ( http://reptile-database.reptarium.cz/species?genus=Broghammerus&species=reticulatus&search_param=%28%28search%3D%27Broghammerus+reticulatus%27%29%29 )
