Re: Thinking about switching to a baby green anaconda...
The answer is no, you should not.
Big Snakes live decades, eat like horses, and poop prodigously. Anacondas get real big real fast. If you are looking to rehome a ball this quickly, you will be rehoming an anaconda very quickly as well. This is no easy task.
Anacondas are advanced snakes only.
I have the skills and ability to keep one, but I don't because it is too much work, too much food, and too much space. It is also illegal where I live
Many other common snakes are better choices.
I would suggest you consider not owning any of the long lived giant snakes, since they require dedication, resources, and a long attention span.
At your current place as a reptile keeper you are not ready for the commitment or the challenge.
I hope this does not hurt your feelings, it is not meant to. This is an appraisal of the demands of keeping such a large and potentially dangerous snake.
Anacondas are not good starter snakes. They are not even good intermediate snakes. Advanced only. After a decade or so of snake keeping, when you have experience with four or five species and can dedicate yourself to a giant, then maybe you should consider one.
