==Housing==
In captivity, anthill pythons can be housed (and bred) in something as small as a 20 gallon tank. Although reptile specific enclosures are best, a simple fish tank may be used for short or long-term housing. They may be fed mice as part of their regular diet and supplemented with fuzzy rats. Anything larger is usually a stressor on their system, even though they will still try to eat it. Once anthill pythons get started eating, they rarely refuse a meal except for breeding season or during part of their shedding cycle.
 
After only about 6 months, they still are measured in gram weight due to their small "pocket" size.{{Source needed|date=February 2023}}
