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. Here you may post messages or questions pertaining to all aspects and issues regarding the keeping, breeding, health, and conservation of Blood Pythons.
