kiera

[Dave]

a picture of the length of kiera now, shes getting a hell of a lot more powerfull now! ;D

[Vicki]

Shes such a sexy girl Dave ;D Kiera I mean not the poster on the wall

Can I ask, do u actually sleep in that bed, lol!!

[Dave]

yes it was the first time i got a chance to use the camara properly and so everything was chucked on the bed for pictures and props for the snake to sit on lol!
so in short answer that is, yes i do sleep in it when i clear it up at night lol and believe it or not the room actually stays clean!!!!!

[Dave]

also, the posters are atleast tastefull lol unlike some of my friends rooms ;D

[John Pilling]

Good looking as usuall your kiera, and with a tasty pic thrown in .

[Jared]

Just wondering, are royals just as easy to keep as corns? and are their feeding times the same like a small mouse every five days or something like that? thanks

[Dave]

well i believe there a little harder to look after than corns mainly due to them going off there food at times and being a little bigger and more powerful, however they are a good snake to keep as they usually have good temperaments (unless you find the odd 1 in a 1000 like kiera lol)

[Amber]

Angry ball pythons don't seem that rare anymore, its worrying!
They seem overly defensive, which I think is worse than aggressive, poor snakes

Pretty ball python ;D

[Dave]

thanks steph, they do seem to be on the rise

[Dave]

another shot that i just took that i love! ;D

[John Pilling]

That is 1 hell of a good pic Dave, 1 of the best i've ever seen i think

[lozzer]

I must agree it looks very proffesional.

[Dave]

thanks guys
;D

[Jared]

Man Dave you made me want to get one now! And I've decided not to get a beardie for my birthday(too much work) and I'm hopefully getting a ball python or another corn! But I really want a ball python just because of that first pic!

[Dave]

they are amazing snakes but just remember about the food thing and the size they can get, they get much fatter an stronger than corns and they DO have teeth, i have a scar to prove that! ;D

[jo]

lets see ya scar then lol

[John Pilling]

lets hope it's in a viewable possition .

[Jared]

Just wondering are royals as powerful as Red tailed boas? cause I held a ten month old red tail in the pet store yesterday and he felt like all muscle!

[John Pilling]

bci's are more powerfull imho, but Dave can probbabley give you a better, more direct comparison.

[Dave]

boas use all there muscle to hold on to whatever there on mainly because of the size they grow to and the amount there body weighs, they cant afford to fall! royals are a lot more clumbsy and feel that they can hold on with the little muscle they use (which doesnt always work), i believe that kiera is stronger at the moment cos of the size but once tiny gets to full size he will be the more powerfull one!
if we are talking more about the python v boa discusion, a reticulated python is the most powerfull snake, squeezing its body is like trying to squeeze metal and put up against the anaconda(also of the boa family) and the burmese rock python would be more than a match for strength! obviously though the retic grows to just over 20 foot whereas the anaconda can pass that length with storys of 28-30 footers being found and so the anaconda is a much deadlier force!
