Jayapura Green Tree Python ( Morelia viridis)

Baby Jayapura green tree pythons are typically 12-15 inches long and have a bright yellow or orange coloration with black markings. As they mature, their coloration will become more green, and they will develop a black net pattern along their back.

Morelia viridis are relatively easy to care for, but they do require a high level of humidity. They should be housed in a terrarium that is at least 20 gallons in size, and the humidity level should be kept at 70-80%. Baby Morelia viridis should be fed live or frozen-thawed mice that are about the same size as the snake’s head.

Jayapura green tree pythons are known for their docile temperament, and they make good pets for experienced snake owners. However, they can be nippy when they are young, so it is important to handle them gently.

Here are some tips for caring for Morelia viridis:

  • Provide a secure enclosure with a warm side and a cool side.
  • Use a substrate that is easy to clean, such as aspen shavings or paper towels.
  • Provide a water bowl that is large enough for the snake to soak in.
  • Offer food that is the same size as the snake’s head.
  • Handle the snake gently and regularly.

With proper care, a baby Morelia viridis can live for 20-30 years.
