Per request by @solarserpents and @jawramik Olivia and Jennifer: Here is Tucson my Bi Color Loxocemus Python, as well as his enclosure. Hot side around 90 degrees with 1/3 of the cool end very very damp so I wet that side down frequently, meaning I just pour the water in until I think it’s damp but without water standing in te bott of the tub. He never has any problems with shedding btw. Cyprus mulch several inches thick because he likes to burrow in deep. This is pretty much all the info I got from the breeder.

He only comes up at night to grab his ft rat pup. He is very squirmy at first when handled but settles down quickly. He has never bitten me. Of course I have him in a tub and since he stays burrowed I don’t use UVB or any other lighting. And breeder didn’t specify to use btw.

He is going on 2 years old. He is imo a really cool little python to keep as long as he has access to very very damp mulch on the cool side. (Breeder used cypress mulch as well).

He is thriving in my care with the simple way I keep him. He eats every single time unless he is shedding. Others may question my husbandry’s method but I just went on advice of his breeder because he should know. I don’t overthink
it…

So without any further ado, here is Mr Tucson and his humble home….

Edit to add: I will try to find a picture of his creamy belly but I have trouble taking pictures one handed anyway and he didn’t want to stay still!
