(Antaresia childreni)
---------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- -----------------
Childrens Pythons grow to about 1 metre in general, but can reach 1.5metres
They are a Ground Dwelling Python that need a longer enclosure rather than a taller enclosure, also being Ground Dwelling you can use a heat mat instead of a heat light for the heat source.
Children Pythons are a small species when young they can squeeze out of small holes or gaps, please ensure you have checked over your enclosure correctly - even the glass spacing on sliding doors!
Children Pythons eat pinky mice as hatchlings and normally small weaner rats as adult pythons.
