    Facts about:
    Royal Ball Python is a python species native in west and central Africa, where it lives in grassland, scrublands and open forest.
    It is a nonvenomous constrictor, the smallest of African pythons, growing to a maximum length of 182cm (72 inches). And weigh up to 4 to 5 pounds. In captivity, they can live longer than 20 years.
    The name ball python refers to its tendency to coil into a tight ball when stressed or frightened. And this defensive behavior is typically employed in lieu of biting, which made this species easy for humans to handle.
    Royal Ball Python’s coloration is black or dark brown with light brown blotches on the back and sides; white or cream belly with scattered black markings.
    Both sexes have pelvic spurs on both sides of the vent. During copulation, males tend to have a larger
    spurs and use them for gripping females.
    Sex is best determined by manual eversion of the male hemipenes or inserting a probe in the cloaca to check the presence of an inverted hemipenes
    Mammals burrows in the wild is their favorite hiding places, they also aestivate. Males tend to display more semi arboreal behaviors, whilst females tend towards terrestrial behavior.
    Python’s jaws aren’t joined at the front by a rigid symphysis as ours are. Instead their two lower jaws move independently of one another and joined by an elastic ligament that allows them to spread apart, enabling them to swallow a large prey. The quadrate bone is not rigidly attached to their skull, but articulates with the skull at one end and is therefore freely moving.
    Pythons Pit organs on its face contain a membrane that can detect infrared radiation from warm bodies up to one meter away.

    Gorgeous! That handmade scale sculpting tool is ingenious. You could sell them! You could create a whole pack of different animal skins that you made into tools like that one. I know people would buy them.

      Fine Arabian desert sand po gamit ko na sand bedding, sobrang pino kasi nya and not sticking to the sculpture. You can find other fine sand po jan sa pinas, just pass them through a sieve/fine strainer pra mas lalong pumino🙂
