just had a quick look at those links a some others, yes as you said its definatly a indian rock python the afrock is a different species (python sebae)

have heard of indian rock pythons but never read much about them i know they are not very common in the uk

it has afrock marking/colour to its sides but burmese markings along the front half of the top and strangely its head looks like a granite burmese.

i would say it a cateater python (burm x afrock) but with something else in the genetics somewhere.
very nice snake though definatly something i would buy



it is a pure Indian Rock Python Chrisc

a friend told me that and i did some research in the internet:

Thank you chrisc, i think you are right in what u said. i really couldn't define what it is exactly. i thought too it could be (Burmese + Afrock).

it kept sniffing at me all the time when i was handling it and the owner (who is my friend) said it tried to attack at him yesterday

it is too early for an afrock for me Rob i don't think i can handle keeping an afrock right now, due to its aggressive rep.

so i just took few pics

i saw albino burmese that could be a good investment for me, but i have to wait until situation gets better here in syria first.
