Rescue: Burmese Python

[CTReptileRescue]

On Saturday we picked this girl up from the Beardsley zoo (Bridgeport, CT)
She is in good health and very heavy, (at least 100lbs) She was a drop off, but they were able to isolate her well. So she is now here in quarenteen, and hopefully with a little time will be able to do educational shows with us, in the least to give Merlin (the big boy) a little break.
Anyhow, here is a poor picture of her, as my husband is out, and she is definatly a two person snake.:

I'll try and get a better picture soon
Thanks

Sweet pic! And I'm glad you rescued her. I love the way Burmese's heads are so thick and beefy!

wow nice!
It nice to hear that she is in good health. We hear too often about injured, poorly taken care of snakes going your way...
Im looking forward to more pics! Burmese are pretty...

What's the story on her? Why'd she get dropped off at the zoo?

Thanks everyone, she seems to be a good girl, we'll see what happens with time.
But yes it is so nice to have a healthy animal come are way.

Congrats on an easier case than usual. I hope she does prove suitable for giving Merlin a break.
