Reticulated pythons are huge, thick snakes. They have a pattern of black and brown that I can't easily explain, and a yellow face. Check out the photos in the related links.

Reticulated pythons should never be described as "thick," they are incredibly thin, active snakes. If a reticulated python is not thin it's likely overweight or obese. Their pattern can be described as "netted/webbed," which is where their name "reticulated" comes from. They also often have orange, silver, and greenish colors, and can be quite ornate. Each locality has slightly different appearances. I think it's also worth noting, not all reticulated pythons are huge! There are island localities that max out at only 6' in length, and being such incredibly thin snakes they won't appear as big as they really are, and someone might guess a 6' retic to be maybe 4' if it wasn't stretched out to show its length.
