Blood pythons (Python brongersmai) are a species of short-tailed python native to Southeast Asia, particularly in Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia. They are known for their thick, muscular bodies and vibrant colouration, which can range from deep reds and oranges to yellowish hues. Blood pythons typically grow to about 4-6 feet in length, with females generally larger than males. Their diet consists mainly of small mammals and birds. These snakes are best suited to experienced reptile keepers due to their sometimes defensive temperament, but with proper care and experience, they can become more manageable and make strikingly beautiful pets.
