| Produced by
Gary Sipperly, this female comes from a very legendary
lineage. She is the progeny of animals with genetic ties
to the Sedgewick County zoo in Kansas ...the first
facility to successfully accomplish captive propagation
of tree pythons in captivity. She was a red hatchling
and we are hoping she will be featured prominently in
the albino project. |

SIDE
NOTE: We
affectionatle refer to Nowling as the "Volleyball
Chondro", as she weighs in at an astounding 2400
grams. In my years of keeping tree pythons I've not seen
another animal that was as impressive in regard to size.
Of course, it doesn't hurt that she's beautiful either!
