Ball Python/ Cave Racer

Well, its been a long time since I post anything related about serpents. This reptiles shit is driving me crazy, its bringing me to another level, its addictive, I even thought of breeding them and sell ... They are just too adorable ! !

Since most of my close friends have saw my snake and even play with it, hope that no personal attack will happen this time.

Most people have negative thoughts about snakes, this is because of how they are brought up, every text book stress that snakes are poisonous, never go near snakes blablabla. Even in Discovery or National Geographic, they love showing poisonous snakes or telling how long can a human last after one bite, this brain washed people to think that snakes are only *dangerous*. Stupid piece of shit but is interesting though =)

If you have study about snakes, you will notice that they are just like any other animals like cats and dogs. It depends on one interest as well. I love mammals too, but I have more interest in snakes you see. Since they are cold blooded, no one should ever blame snakes for being aggresive, they are just protecting themselves.

But mine is pretty tame =)

This was my friend snake(Cave Racer), he pass it to me for baby sitting.

This friend of mine have 5 snakes at home, this was the 6 one. It starting to feed on fuzzies and lizards now.

I am starting to love this snake, wondering can he give it to me ..... =)

This is what you called a Python Constrict. A python secret weapon to kill its prey is by constricting, even something larger than the snake.

Snakes always start swallowing their prey from their head first, there is no way a snake can swallow a larger prey if they don't start swallowing from the head.

Snakes swallow their prey, they don't bite it.

*Remember that snakes are not vegetarian*

From what I noticed after keeping this 2 snakes for quite some time, they tend to yawn after swallowing a meal. I guess is because of the air pressure inside their stomach. Haha

Snakes have very low metabolism rate especially pythons . One full meal can allow them to fast up to 6 months or even a year but is not advisable.

Reptiles are just another part inside the ecosystem, snakes wouldn't bring any harm if nothing disturbs them. Venom are just to protect themselves, very few cases humans got bitten by snakes rite, that only happen when *humans provoked the serpents*

Have A Nice Day
