    Animal planet at it again
    Well I was flipping the channels and on comes a rerun of untamed and uncut called SUdden Peril. Well theres a trapped elk yada yada and then burmese python of course. So the story is this teen who loves animals is asked to take care of a 14ft burmese python. Well this thing is in a 4*2*2 cage by my guess, its a solid wooden box and the snake cant even coil without part of it coming up against the enclosure. Theres problem 1. Problem 2 is its feeding time. He throws a live rabbit in the cage but the python didnt notice it as it was climbing up over the side. He goes to put her head back in the cage, she smells rabbit...BAM bites his arm starts coiling. He starts moving her all in the air and grapping around her neck then puts pliers down her throat to get her off. Animal planet says this was a very close encounter witha very deadly snake. I feel bad for the snake, bad conditions, probally had teeth broken, and has stupid owners.
    Kinda of funny but I did get my bps back my dads ok now and Im just gonna keep that partial cage in the garage for another day. In the meantime animal plastics has nice 4*2*2 inclosures for 185 so Im looking to get a jcp or woma to put in the cage I just ordered. I know womas are very docile and very cool looking and Will Bird has some nice looking males and females.
