That is very accurate and I would have to whole-heartedly agree with your statement about losing its spots. Childrens and spotteds have about the same temperment, and come from similar areas and have similar habits, so the only real difference is size and color and pattern. The only problem with what you had said was about spotted size; they rarely reach 4 feet and only females could. Males stay slightly smaller, but in general spotteds only reach about 3 feet.

Check out our childrens python care guideline on our homepage.
They are great pythons and easy to work with. I definately reccommend them.
