They can grow to a length of up to 3 metres so be sure to get them a good size enclosure as an adult! They natively live in the dry coastal forests, rocky hills and peripheral desert regions of Northern Australia, from the north-west coast of Western Australia to Queensland. While this python is often mistaken for a venomous snake, in the wild it actually feeds on large venomous snakes like the King Brown. Instead of basking in the sun to warm its body and exposing itself to predators, the Black-headed Python only protrudes its head out of its burrow. Its black head acts as a solar panel and heats its entire body.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck out our Black Headed Python Care Guide (COMING SOON) for more information about how to take care of them the right way!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Pet World we have everything you need to create the\u003cspan\u003e perfect setups \u003c\/span\u003efor your \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBlack Headed\u003c\/span\u003e Python, check them out below!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/petworldwired.com\/cart\/42148745805990:1,31729745821755:1,31728579182651:1,35754311057574:1,31734492725307:1,31734493675579:1,21133937737787:1\" title=\"Starter Kit Setup!\"\u003eStarter Kit Setup\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/petworldwired.com\/cart\/42148745805990:1,31729745821755:1,31728579182651:1,21266036359227:1,31742751768635:1,21266017550395:1,31729102356539:1,21266011521083:1,31734493675579:1,31734492725307:1,21133937737787:1\" title=\"Everything you need paired with a 600HT Terrarium\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUltimate Setup\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAfter reading the care guide (COMING SOON), don't hesitate to ask staff for any further assistance required!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Live Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42148745805990,"sku":"LS-SN6","price":999.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2076\/8923\/files\/17903_Image1.jpg?v=1750309423","url":"https:\/\/petworldwired.com\/products\/reptile-black-head-python","provider":"Pet World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
