my new GIANT albino burmese python!!!!!

[Lori P]

Stefan, if you do post it, put it in it's own thread with a warning. I really don't want to see it. Sorry... wimp here....

[anji1971]

I think you could post it, but Lori's right -- put it separately with a warning. I'll probably look, I have a sick kind of curiosity about these things!!

[Stefan-A]

I'll wait until a moderator approves it. I can't guarantee that it's a burmese and I can't guarantee that it's not a fake.

It might be upsetting for people, the warning might only serve to make them curious. Perhaps if some members want to see it you could PM it to them?

[Stefan-A]

Too much work. But I can PM it to you.

[adamanteus]

Too much work. But I can PM it to you.

Haha! I'm not sure I want to see it! Oh, go on then!

[Cazador]

I agree with James... The PM route is probably the best way to go. Thanks for asking first, Stephan.

man thats creepy how huge they get i like snakes that i can hold,
also wont that cost a ton feeding it rabbits and pigs? and also getting a giant enclosure? and cleaning it? wow u have your work cut out for you
and id watch out there have been lots of reports of Burmese pythons killing children

[Stefan-A]

Thanks for pointing that out, Reed. Personally, I don't mind people keeping these giants, as long as they know what they're getting into.

Rabbits aren't that expensive if you breed them and I know that many use f/t chicken to feed their burmese. Or were they retics.. Large pythons anyway. If you can afford to house it properly, feeding it shouldn't be difficult.

im thinking soon hes moving into my garage,,,i think if i use enough heat lights i can built basically a big wooden box with a door on it for him,,put some bedding down and supply water and of course heat,,,i know its winter but i might wait till summer to build the box,,,maybe like a 5 foot tall by 10ft long,,i think thats probably big enough right? that way i can go in and get him,,dont want to get on ure hands and knees and crawl face first into a box with this guy,,,lol,,,anyways as far as it being hard to handle i dont see any problems,,,hes a nice snake so far and is handled really well. i hope he dont get to 20 ft,,,lol,,but if he gets over 14ft ill probably sell him or give him to someone who can care for him,,under 14 i can handle i think,,i already wont let him wrap himself around my neck when im holding him, lol,,right now he eats jumbo rats...probably baby rabbits but have not tried that one,,,anyone know how to get him to eat live animals? hes always been fed f/t rats
