How big is it? You can't tell the sex?
Is it the same python in the second photo? The color is a little different, and I am not sure if it is caused by the lights.

Very good questions Smile It is the same snake, actually only a few minutes apart. And except for cropping the pics, unedited. The first pic is with a flash, and the second was fluorescent lighting. Green tree pythons can be very tricky to catch their true colours. Allot of the chondro guys are also avid photography fans.

She is around 24", give or take. You can tell the sex, and with many species it's actually easier when they are neonates. Green tree pythons are very fragile, especially their spines, and it is very easy to injure them, or what is commonly called "kink" them by probing them at too young of an age. There are many people that advise against even holding them before they are 6 months old. I don't really agree with that, but you can't force them off the perch, you have to "tickle" their tail and let them crawl onto your hand. I call her a she because outwardly she appears to be female most likely, and I don't like the term "it".
And just for the curious, here is a pic of her as a hatchling, almost a year ago...
