Anyone else out there all alone in a category? Sometimes Ky-Lin and I feel a little isolated in the Children's Python forum. I can always find company in corn snakes though, so it's not too bad...

Just curious how many more lonely only categories there are...

I know the feeling. Adam and I are the only ones in the dart-frog forum.

I don't know as I havn't posted much, but probably for me here, its the retic forum and the bloods..

Are they really called children's python? I wonder how they are called in Switzerland.Do you have another name,maybe the latin one,so I could look it up on a swiss site!Thanks.

Yes the Childrens python, Antaresia childreni. I believe that Children is a reference to a persons name not a child.

Yes. I found this on a website:

"Despite its name the Children's Python is not a python that eats children, nor is it a snake more suitable than others as a children's pet. This reptile was named after the scientist John George Children, who first described them. Children's Python is the common name given to the four native Australian pythons of the genus Antaresia. Antaresia childreni and Antaresia maculosa are the most commonly kept by amateur herpetologists. A. childreni can be found in the wild across much of northern Australia, while A. maculosa is seen along the northern half of the east coast of Australia.

Children's Pythons are known for their smaller size compared to other python species. A. childreni has basic brown colouration with chocolate markings that are one or two shades darker and band-like in shape. They have a distinguishing blue sheen over their scales, which can be seen in the sun. This snake grows to no longer than 1.1 metres. The A. maculosa is lighter brown in body colour with dark chocolate markings that are quite splotched. It grows to 1.6 metres in length. Colour in both snakes varies depending on the area of origin."

I think me and Jay are all alone with the salamanders, although newts seem to be getting more attention lately.

I've been waiting for more people in the salamenders and newts. It's no fun talking to yourself.
