    Mt mate curremtly has a royal python about half that length. Its so cool but it has a habit of curling round the brackets that hold the radiators to the wall and is a complete cnut to get out again

    My step dad used to have an albino burmese python but had to get rid when it got to about 5ft as it was starting to get more difficult the bigger it got - a bot tempremental - never bit anyone or wrapped anyone/thing up but he was getting pesky for want of a better word - kept figuring out how to break out

    Make good pets generally

    They do fascinate me, but I don't think I could share a house with one!

    Very cool though

    I love Pythons, quickest way to a divorce if i got one though.

    Its a wierd sensation when they flick their tounge around the back of your neck. & boy stick a mouse in the cage when there really hungry & they strike at speed the first time i saw it made me jump.

    the 3ft vivarium will do the Royal python for life as he;ll prob top out at 4ft andthey prefer a more cosy space, he was eating a rat managed to get him on them and hes piling on pounds now hes off the mice!! lol I let my python roam around the other week in liviong room and he wrapped himself round leg of tv cabinet and he was a nightmare to get off!! Thats why they get called Ball pythons I guess cos they roll in to a ball!!

    The boa is a baby and will eventually need a large viv prob 5ft maybe more if she gets to her 10ft potential!!!! she is lovely though I am smitten!!

    Very pretty! i don't mind snakes at all!nice to see a change after all the horrible spider threads!

    You only need two tools in life - wd-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the wd-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

    And if you can't fix it with a hammer,you've got an electrical problem!

    If I was to have a pet I'd rather have a lizard. Chamealeon would be cool.

    iguanas are proper hard work. took a rescue one in a few years ago and took me 3months to chill him out.
