*Pics of my new Borneo short-tail*

Here is my new girl, I got her on Thursday. She is about 3 feet long and a year old, and very hyper! She is the most active short-tail I've seen. She was sold to me as a "blood python" but I am positive she is not. I'm pretty sure she isn't a Sumatran short-tail either, what do you think?
Thanks for looking!

She looks borneo to me.Who sold you that snake saying it was a red blood.Was that what you were looking for a red blood, and you got a borneo, or did you see a picture and wanted it whether blood or not?I've got two blacks, one sumatran red blood, now I need a borneo or sarawak, then thats all I can handle.Good luck with your new snake.How many does that make now for you?

The guy who sold it to me was named Matt Coolen and he ordered it from someone in the US. I just asked him if he had any blood or short-tailed pythons and he said he could get a blood. I would have been happy with any of the three species so I'm not complaining. I was sure surprised when he said she was a year old! She is pretty big for her age, not overly fat though. I now have a blood and a Borneo, and I don't think I'll get any more, two is enough for me.

I'm not sure of the identity of that snake. It DOES seem to be something other than a sumatran. But what I marvel at is the size! If you are right and it is only one year old that is phenomenal growth! thanks for sharing!
