Found in Southeast Asia in southern Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia, adult Blood Pythons grow to 1.5-2.5 m (5�8 feet) in length and are heavily built. The tail is extremely short relative to the overall length and the color pattern consists of a beige, tan or grayish-brown ground color overlaid with blotches that are brick to blood-red in color. In the wild they feed on a variety of mammals and birds. Three subspecies are recognized, including the nominate subspecies, although some authors describe these as species.

A nice example of the Matrix Bloods (Het Ivories) I produced this year.
Sire is a visual Ivory. Dan is a VPI line Red Blood that is 100% "Het" Albino. I have produced albinos out of her in the past.
Should turn out nice.
