Wild type 100% het rayline and marble stimmy — Antaresia stimsoni, the python most often named when European keepers describe the perfect starter snake: under a metre, russet-blotched on cream, docile from its first month, and happy for life in a desktop-sized enclosure. Locality lines (Tibooburra, Flinders Ranges, Wheatbelt, Port Hedland) and morph projects (rayline, marble, T+) each carry their own distinct look — this listing’s title tells you exactly which.

Care Basics
A warm-end/cool-end setup with two snug hides and a water bowl is the entire equipment list. Hatchlings take a defrosted pinkie every 5–7 days; adults an adult mouse every 10–14. Antaresia are dusk-active and secretive by day — let them have the hide, and they repay you with flawless feeding and calm handling for decades.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do locality names mean?
Wild-region bloodlines kept pure by breeders — each locality has its own pattern character and collectors value that provenance.
Stimson’s vs Children’s python?
Near-identical care; Stimson’s carry the bolder, higher-contrast blotching. Choose on pattern.
