    Your Woma looks like it's permanently concerned for you with those eyebrows. It's so freaking adorable.

    About a year ago, I got a baby Woma from a store that the staff referred to as “The Pumpkin King” because of his coloration and the little black spots on his eyes. Because of this, I ended up naming him Jack! He’s my very first snake and since his adoption he’s grown so much! He’s almost two feet, absolutely ravenous for chicken-scented mice, and a complete sweetheart. He nipped me one time, but it’s only because I accidentally spooked him. Other than that and a little hiccup with his feeding early on (he was terribly picky his first month) I couldn’t have asked for a better first snake. I really wish there was more appreciation for these funky little snakes. Keep up your awesome work!

    I have a 6month old Woma python and he is absolutely puppydog tame. It's amazing, I was always told that womas are cage aggressive and have a really high food drive. But in my experience, i beg to differ. My boy is fantastic.

    Hi my name is ryan i live in australia and happen to come across yout video aand would like to thank you for explaning the issue with smuggling of these animals out of australia. We have some tough laws for a reasion just recently 200 reptiles well seized in WA on there way to the black market it not only crule but also makes it harder for us to keep our own animals here. I happen to have a few bredli carpits as well as a few geckos of witch womas will deffently feed on. There are good numbers of both bredli and womas in captive populations compared to 10 years ago. You seem very knowledgeable and i admire thatmyou serch out the infomation for your blogs.

    Thanks for the video! I just got my first woma python (a 6-month-old female), and I'll be picking her up to bring her home in a few weeks. :) I'm super excited for her to join the family! The breeder from whom I purchased her has definitely been "power-feeding" her, which I will be changing to a more reasonable schedule once she's in my care. I'm not really looking to get into breeding, and I'd rather that my snake have a good long life ahead of her.

    Hi Emily, I've been reading that wild Woma's tend to grow to 8 feet and get darker in coloration when they grow older even lose the orange yellows on their heads. Is this any different with captive bread Woma's. And is it true that captive bread snakes tend to get smaller during many generations of breeding. Please comment, you guys have the best snake vlog by a long way, I love it! Thanks.

    Emily, you should definitely look into getting a children's python or a stimson python! Two other native Australian species that are also the result of illegal pet traffickers, and they are just GORGEOUS snakes! Children's pythons are the ball python of the Australian reptile trade (we're not allowed non-native species here, to prevent biosecurity incidents like the Burmese python issue in Florida), they're lovely small first-time snakes, very calm and friendly.

I suspected as much, they grow to similar sizes and both eat other snakes, I guess it's just about who gets who first.
