you're a brave brave soul.
I wouldn't dream of trying to tackle anacondas, burmese or retics.
 
thanks very much :) this is about quarter of our collection and many more to come :) we have many corns coming soon as my partner is breeding them. We currently keep 6 retics 4 anacondas 2 afrocks 2 burms 3 corns, 1 papuan olive python, we did have over 20 but sold a couple sp were down to about 18 now.
 
We've been debating Retics Burms Anacondas and Afrock's on here recently....
As a keeper of a few of these species, how do you find them?.... Aggressive? Easy to keep? What size do they get to etc? It would be interesting to here a hands on account of these animals...

Mike mate, most caresheets describe many of them as being potentially feisty- a caresheet -is- a hand-on account mostly. :shrugs:
 
Wrong Oren... A care sheet can be written by anybody who has a decent command of the chosen language and the time to average out research.....
There's a vast difference between owning a species and reading about a species.....
Other wise we wouldn't have all the help threads from newbs who have researched for the last 9 months... ;)

Because it's a forum and we discuss snakes... You can read and become educated to a species you may never have seen or considered... Or you can not bother and keep your prejudices based on whatever rumour or myth you have heard.....
Me, I tend to lean more towards education and finding out hard facts.... Whether I am proved right or wrong I am educated to the truth.....
 
I am just saying that Asian Ratsnakes are very unappriciated in the CB forms that they can be seen in and just thought of as the more common imports

Hey whoa chill, I agree with you. And I want to hear what the op has to say(beautiful snakes by the way). Its just that I can foresee another huge thread starting about the same discussion we've been having and that's not what this thread was for. :)

As a Keeper of a Burm..
I personally find my snake very pleasant. She is between 13 - 14 feet long.
I give her a healthy respect though. She is calm and friendly out side of her cage but a tigress inside. She is hook trained, so she knows she is being pulled out when something is placed on her head.

But to be honest, i wouldn't trust someone who didnt know how to handle large snakes around her. I would be afraid of them being dragged into the cage.

Now the snake i would say that I wouldnt want to keep would be Scrubs. I hear that WC Scrubs are just nasty mean creatures.
