Python Molurus .
Python Molurus Albino
The Python Molurus is, apart from the Python Reticulatis and the Python Sebae, the biggest Python species.
The Python Molurus has two subspecies, of which the most famous one is the Python Molurus Bivittatus, also called Burmese Python.
The other subspecies, Python Molurus Molurus is also called Indian Python. Both subspecies have a large variety in colours and skin painting, which exist mostly of a pattern of tiger-like large brown spots to a brown base colour with a lighter pattern.
The natural habitat is South Asia but the Python Molurus is kept as a pet quite often in the western world.
Some of the Python Molurus can get very big - around 7 meters - but mostly they stay around 4 to 5 meters for females and 3 meters for males.
When they are young they eat small rats and when they get bigger rabbits and chickens.
Don't believe some websites when they say you have to keep them in a large room or a very big terrarium.
They feel more comfortable in a smaller terrarium, the reason is that in nature they live in holes or in small caves from which they only emerge when they are hungry.
