Field Notes

Description:

A small python species with chocolate and black markings on its back and a white belly. As pythons are obviously not found native in Idaho, these are my friend Ross' pets. He breeds them.

Habitat:

Africa originally

Notes:

These snakes are very docile and generally make good pets.

Very cool! Since they're pets, would you please move this to the Pets category? It helps separate the domestic from wild spottings. Thank you :)
