Hi folks. I have a problem: my eyes are far too big for my wallet.



I have been fascinated with White Lipped Pythons [Leiopython albertisii], which I have also heard called "D'Albert's Pythons," for at least the past fifteen years or so. Admittedly I was a kid at the time, and I was warned off of them because they are supposedly just not pleasant snakes to keep. But they look SO COOL.



Well, I am older now, and the internet keeps feeding this reptilian addiction of mine... I saw on VPI's website that these guys are supposedly nippy as youngsters, but the captive bred individuals usually calm down as adults. If anyone on this forum might have any words of advice about keeping these guys, I would love to hear it!



Thanks,

~Rebecca
