Exotic Pets - Green Tree Python - as part of the series on pets and animals by GeoBeats.

I got a Green Tree Python here, this is one that we always have available here. They are very cool pets, there is a big misconception with them being very aggressive, there is a few that are a little bit harder to work with but, this is a Maroque. They are very pretty, they can get about 6 feet, they can be kept in an enclosure about 36 x 24 x 24.

They are aboreal snakes, so you pretty much want a taller cage, they are cage temperature should be kept between 78 and 84, 88 degrees; a high humidity cage. A good substrate for them is Red Cyprus Mulch, high ventilation in their cage and that is pretty much it. Constant handling can usually tame a baby, but not always. Other than that, they are really cool pets and I hope they catch on a little more in the pet industry.
