The Halmahera Python is a medium to large python with typical adult size of around 8-12ft. As the common name suggests this python inhabits the rainforests of Halmahera Island. Most specimens have a base color of greyish silver or brownish gold and a thick banded pattern of dark grey to black. Occasional aberrant specimens show up that are partially striped or blotched pattern to near pattern less. This can be one of the most difficult python species to keep in captivity.
I maintain a few of these incredible species and dream of the day I can reproduce them in my care.
