The Papuan Olive Python is a large snake, with adults growing to an average length of 4 meters (13 ft) and some specimens growing to lengths of over 5 meters (16 ft). However, they are not nearly as heavy-bodied as most other pythons, typically weighing only about 22.5 kilograms (50 lb). The available information about the species size is limited. They are noted for having the ability to change color, though the exact mechanism and reasons for it are not completely understood. The color is reputed to change when the snake is agitated. They can vary from black to a mustard yellow, but are normally an olive green in appearance when young and dark olive when older, with the sides and underside distinctly lighter.
