| Finally I got a pair of scrubs, They have been on my wish list for a few years now, sorry for the not so good pics Ill take them out this weekend and get better shots. Just wanted to share my happiness with some one (out in the woods down south no one seems to like snakes that much) Enjoy  Female [img]  [/img] Male, in shed [img]  [/img] |

| Trevor
Do you know their origin/lineage? They don't look like Australian animals (kinghorni) - Indonesia maybe? |

| Imported from Indonesia is all they could tell me, I just always wanted a larger species and these always had my attention, beautiful, big and kinda nippy,love at first sight. |

| Hi Trevor Nice Snake , Those look likely to be different localities. The male is definitely from Merauke the female i am not sure yet... |

| I'd agree on the male being merauke. The female looks like it could be an aru. |

| Nice Scrubs, She is an "Aru" locale. At least thats what exporters/importers label them as. I have kept almost every locale of the Scrub Python complex(except Austrailian), and I love them all!  |
