Blood pythons (Python brongersmai) are beautiful, big snakes in a reasonable package. Though they have a bit of a bad reputation, these snakes can actually make great pets. The big question, as always, is just whether or not the blood python is the best pet snake for you. So, is it? Let's help you find out.

when it comes to the Blood Pythons he is right on, I would rate it 4 out of 5 I have had my blood now for about a year, it is 5 Y/O about 4 foot, I am not going to power feed either, I like slow and natural too. it came to me from a handler at a zoo so it is use to everything, actually likes being held and wraps my arm when he knows he is going to be put back, since mine is well handled and has never really had a bad situation ..... other pets, he gets along with and interacts fine with my 100 Lbs German Shepard (the dog is very well mannered) LOL not as good of an eater as Clint says LOL Large or even jombo F/T just fine, some times ya gotta play the dance, then he may hit it hard from the side and suck on it for 10 min. before moving it around to eat, I have also seen it eat tail first, Im thinking how are you going to do that LOL but he did sometimes in N.Y it gets a little below 70 in my house, it does not seem to bother him, I do notice he slows down a little, but he has a heating pad and a nice tight Blue Stone hide over it I keep 3 different breeds of snakes, its not as active as my Ball Python LOL, the blood can really sit in the same spot for days! you might even think its dead I dont handle him for a day or two after eating just to let things settle, not that you cant its just what I do, since I have a feeding box he dont go into feeding mode every time I open his tank so I have to handle him after feeding to put him back.... I also try not to handle him in shed, sometimes he can be pissy, he almost always hisses when his tank is open that seems to be what this breed does haha but once you start to pick him up he dont hiss at all after its just an over all good (Large) snake, if you are going to get one I suggest watching as many videos from all these guys always be careful, wash your hands before and after handling, make sure its awake and get a few short flicks before reaching and and pulling it out and you will be fine :)

The whole point of "probably the best reptile", "arguably the best reptile" and "one of the coolest reptiles" is that it is not confirming it in fact is the best reptile. It is a lecture in subjectivity. What will be the BEST PET REPTILE for one person, will not necessarily be the case for another. Fact is that one can never confirm one reptile is the best, for what constitutes "best reptile" have different parameters for what would be best for the individual. With that in mind, confirming a reptile as the best pet reptile is impossible. The closest one can get is "probably", "arguably" and "on of the.." I find it beautiful that way.

I got a juvenile blood python at the beginning of this year (partly because of this video) and I absolutely adore him. He’s very shy but perfectly handleable and didn’t really take any more time or effort to tame down than any of my other snakes. They’re not an active species at all, so if you want a snake that will climb on you or give you a big hug these are not the ones, but I love sitting with him on my lap in the evenings when I’m unwinding. It’s like having a weighted blanket for a pet.

"One awkward noodle to juggle." I have an adult blood python, he's around 4 1/2' and he's actually decent at gripping but he still slips easily. Still I can voice they can be awkward noodles but well worth it, had him since he was about 3 weeks old. Also I recommend what he did towards the end, cradle them and it makes holding them so much easier.

@@JK-vy8vh wow i never got the comment notifications until just now. Finding stuff 5 months old feels pretty bad. To answer your question i hold him as an adult around once a month but not that often these days do to other issues. He is quite calm and chill usually just being curious. As a baby he was a little nipper though and i held him usually three or four times a week when he was little to get him acclimated to being handled and people. Short periods of time to start then longer. He actually calmed down surprisingly fast though i think that was partially due to me keeping his tank next to my desk in my apartment when he was a baby and even now so he got used to me being around even when not holding him. Hope that helps and sorry for the long delay.

I have a blood python. He's great. Little nervous when I first got him but he calms down more with each handling. I think they're great but detailed research is a must before getting one of these snakes. Borneo and Sumatran short-tails are also great if you want a snake with a similar build but tend to have mellower personalities by natures, at least that's what I've read and heard. I don't currently keep those species.
@erikm8372
@erikm8372 9 ай бұрын
Aren’t the short-tailed, the blood and Bornean species all sort of considered “blood pythons”? I know they’re different species under the same genus, so obviously they’re not the same exact species… that’s like saying all ball pythons are Burmese are all rock pythons are all blood pythons are Angolan etc. lol. But I thought the Bornean and short-tailed were also called “blood pythons”? Maybe the association has changed recently. Some of the taxonomy has changed… _Python breitensteini_ is from Borneo; the Sumatran short-tailed, _P. curtus_ and then what was considered the “standard” of blood pythons, which lives mainly on the mainland of Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and some offshore islands, _P. brongersmai_ was formerly called Brongersmai’s python?

I think blood pythons are one of the most beautiful snakes along with the gaboon and rhino. My blood would sit in one spot for days and not move a bit to the point where I was starting to worry about it. The only way I could tell it was alive was that I could see it breathing. The unbelievable patience this snake has definitely kept me cautious. There were a couple times I got in the cage to check on him and without any warning or movement, Bam. It hit hard but luckily didn't get me because I knew it was coming.

No, those dimpled scales are actually from too low humidity. That doesn’t mean he’s not taking good care of it or that the snake is unhealthy. It’s virtually impossible to keep a bloodpython in the exact right humidity: the air in an enclosure is usually quite stagnant, as opposed to in open nature.Too humid conditions will then quickly cause respiratory problems. In other words... better let it have some dimpled scales than pneumonia.

Hello. I just wanted to leave a tip for people who want to keep high-humidity reptiles in a tank- it IS possible, especially for small-time keepers like myself. A lot of people use foil on the top of their enclosures. I don't enjoy doing this because the foil usually falls down or is lifted at the corners on accident and it lets the heat out. I have some quick fixes for you!! The general first step is to have a substrate suitable. Coconut husk works great in low-humidity areas, like Clint said. Other fixes are: 1) HVAC tape. This is a safe tape designed to tape together heating and air conditioning units. So if you use an overhead heat source, it will not melt or burn. You just tape it on in rows, then cut out a circle to put your heating lamp. 2) Plexiglass lid. If you want to do something that's a little nicer looking, you can secure some sheets of plexi-glass to the lid of the enclosure around the lamp (if you have one). 3) Leave a larger water dish directly underneath the heating lamp. This will cause the water to evaporate and create more humidity. I hope this helps you!!

The best way I have found to hold them (and this can be said for many snakes) is to sling them over your shoulder like a bundle of rope and let them wrap themselves around your waist or other shoulder for support. If you help them into a position where you support their weight but they feel like they chose that position, it becomes really easy.

Great video! I got a blood Python about three weeks ago! He was very nervous and would bite at random! But with holding for the first week about 10 minutes a day he hasn't bit me and has become an awesome snake!

You are right about the humidity. I have worked with some large blood red beauties in a very humid environment. Still had problems with eye caps not coming off. Trying to remove those eye cap scales resulted in a nasty bite as the Blood latched on and proceeded to chew away. Needless to say those specimens ended up in the collection of a major zoo (back when they were not nearly as available as they are now). Good video!

Amazing how similar the head markings are to the common boa. I had a red tail for 20 years and was fascinated by the iris of each eye following the camouflage pattern in the skin to break up the roundness of the eye. Another example of evolution converging in on what survives and thrives in the wild!

Bloods really are the best species out there for so many reasons. We started this year with one and now, we have 10. They are all we plan on keeping. They are unique and nothing else compares to the 3 short tail species.

Hey! I have a blood Python baby and he is actually less defensive than my ball pythons! I highly recommend, they are not bitey if you properly support them. I have been bitten once and it was 100% my fault. He got a repti chip stuck in his mouth and I tried to help. He wasn't pleased. My baby is difficult with feeding and only takes live, but he is going to be switched to frozen soon, the feeding response is AMAZING.

I used to work for my roommate who was an exotic pet store owner in Pinellas Park, FL. One night our blood python got loose and ate our blue & gold macaw. Then he died soon after. We lost two incredible creatures within a very short period and we were devastated. The blood was very aggressive, although I think they get an unfair reputation. Great video, Clint! Thanks for making it!

My adult male is already very heavy, I guess close to 9 kg and it's a good workout each time I'm taking him out :P I mostly don't carry him alot but instead, put him on some steady surface to crawl and play around, or we sit together on the bed/couch/somewhere where he can fully support his hugely thick body ;) btw, he's such a sweetheart, we came from point where he was striking glass seeing humans (as said his previous owner), to him letting me pet him literally everywhere like back/sides/neck and even his big, beautiful and ominously looking head ;)

I was just at an expo a couple days ago, and my friend and I got to handle a young blood python for the first time. Definitely needed more support from the bottom than a ball python, but other than that she was a sweetheart. She was very inquisitive, but was also just content laying in our arms. We didn't wanna put her down, except for when we started to feel her heft lol. Gorgeous snakes, very sweet if you care for them properly, and very possibly my next snake

I've had one for 2 years now, hes a little hissy brat whenever I try to handle him but puts up with it fairly well. But for housing just drill a dozen or two 1/8" holes around the sides of a under bed tote. Mine has wheels and slides in an out super easy. I've got a good 4" of coconut bedding, like 3 bricks an another 2 of forest moss. He loves it. Shedding is super easy with one 9X9" heating pad under one side, kept near his water.

Hi Clint, I wanted to thank you for all your videos. I have been a long time watcher of your channel even though I don't currently own a snake. I am, however, about to buy my first snake. I live in Australia so it's illegal to own most of the creatures you talk about on your channel, but I will be getting a carpet python. :)
