Start with your display space
Compare extended lengths before choosing a species. The 21-inch boa and diamondback offer shorter listed lengths than the 28-inch ball python or 29-inch Thunderstrike and Obsidian python. A coiled pose uses a different footprint; the listed length is not a shelf-width measurement.
Choose the display details
For a raised display, compare the Thunderstrike and Obsidian python with its included tree stand and the 26-inch viper whose tree stand is currently a bonus. Check that the viper bonus is still offered when ordering. The separate 20-, 24- and 32-inch viper listing changes eye style with size: printed eyes on small, glass eyes on medium and large.
Keep similar listings separate
The 23-inch rattlesnake and 21-inch Western diamondback have separate sizes and palettes. Pied python, ball python and Oreo & Lemon Drop python are also distinct listings. A paired photo or two-color listing name does not mean two snakes are included; select the exact individual or pair option.

| Creature | Size & display | Listed color choices | Before you choose |
|---|---|---|---|
| Articulated Rattlesnake ↗ |
| Glacier Fang; Desert Gold; Neon Venom; Single Color | Glacier Fang combines teal, black and white. Desert Gold brings golden-orange and warm neutral tones; Neon Venom uses purple and pink with black and white. The single-color option emphasizes the sculpted form. |
| Articulated Pied Python ↗ |
| Golden Piebald; Crimson Shadow; Single Color | Golden Piebald combines warm brown and tan with white sections. Crimson Shadow adds red and black contrast. This 26.5-inch listing is separate from the approximately 28-inch Adopt a Python model. |
| Articulated Viper with Tree Stand ↗ |
| Volcanic Ember; Neon Venom; Golden Sahara; Single Color | Choose volcanic orange, bright contrasting tones, sandy neutrals or a single-color body. Etsy currently lists the tree stand as a limited-time bonus, so confirm that inclusion on the listing before ordering. |
| Thunderstrike & Obsidian Python ↗ |
| Thunderstrike; Obsidian | Thunderstrike combines dark tones with electric-blue and yellow details. Obsidian provides the other listed palette. Each selection includes one python and one tree stand, rather than both snakes in a group photo. |
| Articulated Ball Python ↗ |
| Pied; Red Python; Natural Python; Single Color | Choose a patterned python or a single-color version. The Etsy listing also offers a Breeder Pair option; check its description and selected variation to confirm which snakes are included. |
| Articulated Boa Constrictor ↗ |
| Tan; Grey; Single Color | Choose a regular boa for a smaller arrangement or the giant for a longer display. Tan and grey offer different neutral looks; the single-color option places the emphasis on the sculpted scales. |
| Articulated Bush Viper ↗ |
| Arctic White/Blue; Blue/Teal/Green | The current listing offers two blue-influenced color directions and medium or large lengths. A Family Set option is also listed; review that variation to confirm the included snakes. |
| Articulated Cobra ↗ |
| Coffee; Yellow; Single Color | Both young and adult versions feature the hooded cobra design. Choose Coffee, Yellow or a single-color option to suit your display. The young-size measurements differ slightly between Etsy’s description and selector; check with Austin if exact fit matters. |
| Western Diamondback Rattlesnake ↗ |
| Single Color; Ghost; Mojave; Copperhead | Ghost uses gray and pale contrast, Mojave takes a sandy direction, and Copperhead uses warm earth tones. This approximately 21-inch model is distinct from the separate 23-inch rattlesnake listing. |
| Oreo & Lemon Drop Python ↗ |
| Oreo; Lemon Drop; Single Color; Custom 2 Color | Oreo and Lemon Drop are the named colorways. Single Color and Custom 2 Color are also listed. The word “set” in a title or several snakes in a photo does not replace the variation details—check what your selection includes. |
| Articulated Viper ↗ |
| Volt; Aurora; Emerald; Single Color | Volt offers bright blue and yellow contrast. Aurora’s pastel filament shifts naturally, so the color distribution varies from print to print. Emerald and single-color options complete the current choices. |
COLOR & FINISH
Read the variation, then compare the photo.
Where offered, Single Color is a separate choice from the named palettes. Multicolor filament can produce different color placement from one print to another; it is not the same as a fixed, deliberately arranged multicolor design. Ask Austin through the Etsy listing if a particular shade or pattern matters.
CARE & ORDERING
Keep your creature looking its best.
These PLA figures should be kept away from high heat. Handle fine details carefully and pose articulated parts gently without forcing joints. Birds are decorative figures. Follow each Etsy listing’s model-specific care and age guidance.
Photos can show multiple variations or bundles. Confirm your size, style, color, quantity and included pieces on Etsy before checkout.
