    Cage,Money, No snake :p
    Hi
    I'm new here i like this site and i like it, i used to own a burmese pyhon for 8 months it reached 210 cm but i don't have it anymore, i had to give it away, now i have collected some money,i'm thinking of getting a new snake that i will keep , and i really like large snakes so i'm confused between 3 types of snakes, i have some experience since i had my burmese wich got so large, but anyway i have a 2 meters long tank and 80 cm width...i really need opinions from the experienced to choose wich snake to have, i used to feed mine live food but im planing on dead animals this time, the three snake types that i want to choose from are:
    1-Green Anaconda
    2-Burmese Python
    3-Reticulated Python
    ,i don't want a snake that becomes too aggressive when it gets bigger, i will be carefull with any specie i get, but i still want the less aggressive known one!
    sorry for my bad english :p and i appreciate your help
    :)

    in my opinion the least aggresive out of those 3 is the burmese

    why did you get rid of your first burmese? because it got too big? if that's the case i would not get another large snake.

    I'm not sure if you're ready for a large snake. Something that can get as large as these 3 snakes really needs someone with a little more experience than you have. I'm thinking maybe you should start with a Red Tail Boa or possibly a Dumeril's boa. These are snakes that can be handled by just one person, usually have a great attitude and can be a springboard to getting that larger snake in a few years.

    Good Luck!
