The Complete Children's Python

The Complete Children's Python by Dr. Justin Julander, Nick Mutton and Peter Birch is a Comprehensive Guide to the Natural History, Care and Breeding of Antaresia species is the newest addition to "The Complete..." series of books from Eco in the USA

The genus Antaresia, a group commonly referred to as the Children's pythons can be found across the continent of Australia and a small portion of neighbouring New Guinea. The group, comprised of the Children's python (Antaresia childreni), spotted python (A. maculosa), pygmy python (A. perthensis) and the Stimson's python (A. stimsoni), contains the smallest pythons in the world. Despite their small size, these snakes are ideally suited to life in the often-harsh climates of their native Australia. These two factors- size and durability- have made this group popular among python keepers for many years.

THE COMPLETE CHILDREN'S PYTHON is dedicated to all aspects of this amazing group of snakes with particular emphasis on natural history, biology, and reproduction. The authors have beautifully illustrated the immense diversity and natural beauty contained within wild populations of these pythons. This group has previously been underrepresented in herpetocultural literature despite being one of the world's most successful and widespread python genera.
