    Probably, it's because something bad happened with a large constrictor.

    Yeh, that's probably why. There are a lot of states that don't let you keep big constrictors. They're considered dangerous animals (which they can be), mainly becuase of inccidents with people who don't care for them properly and make stupid mistakes that get someone hurt or even killed.

    One problem with big snakes, Mikhaila, is that they take up so much room. You can only have one or two of them, but with little snakes, you can have a bunch of them ;D.

    And when big snakes poop... boy do they POOP .

    But then again, they might poop with intervals of weeks or months, compared to garters that start squeezing it out a day and a half after feeding.

    I don't think it's the poop per se that incites the law makers, lol
