Congrats. Do you have a photo of the parents.

The only good snake is a happy snake.

You thought I was gonna say dead snake didn't yuz?

I love snakes. I wish I was closer. What kind are they? We have very few different types in Utah, U.S.A. but there are a lot. Mainly rattlesnakes. They are not big, only about 5 to 6 feet max but they are beautiful. They are poisonious but unless your stupid they won't kill you. There venom is a high grade protein which softens the tissue of it's prey, mainly mice, rats and small babies. I'll try and find a picture to send you. Cheers!

it's prey, mainly mice, rats and small babies.

these are Inland Carpets, also called Murray Darling pythons, as they tend to be located within the murray - darling river system here. There are anecdotal reports of them being almost 4 metres (over 13feet) but mostly about 6-8 feet. Ours are 7 foot (girl) and 5 1/2 foot (boy). We dont keep anything venomous.

I'll post some pics of the parents later
