In all seriousness, make sure you check out this care sheet for taking care of your new snake:

I'm not familiar with the needs of Burmese, but most snakes when they're so young are food in the wild, so they like a lot of hiding spots and not open area. Also, don't try to feed him so often --- trying once per week is sufficient. If he's stressed and needs time to settle, attempting to feed too often will only compound the stress. Also, he may have been fed live mice/rats previously, so offering frozen/thawed (if that's what you're doing) may be foreign to him.
Any luck finding a girlfriend?
Thx. Im try to ask a girl out im not an expert so will see how it goes, Im 19 and i have never even kissed a girl :hmm: .

But 3 feet verses 18 feet is another ball game. They can really hurt you and as they get bigger even though mine is very docile there are times he thinks he is the Boss and does not want to go back into his enclosure. Luckily he would rather back down from me and he has always been a wonderful calm snake.. But none the less he could kill my Dogs or even a child easily.
I don't know what your living situation is, but Life changes fast at 19 years old. You would be better off with a snake like your Boa who will never have the chance to be 15 feet +. Where you live and how you support yourself will effect this Beauty. Please think about that incase there is a chance you can trade him asap for a smaller Python (Ball/Children's/Blood Python) before you cant find a home for this Gentle Giant in the future. They suffer not us.

he has lots of space atm it can fully stretch and move around when she gets older i will get a bigger but for now it works its a sonoran dwarf boa btw
Re: My baby Burmese wont eat
Hey, I know the question wasn't directed towards me, but I would say that your snake could easily take small adult mice. Just my opinion based on the snake's size. Good luck!

Don't worry too much about that, you have plenty of time. Girls always like guys who care about their pets, and you obviously do. Good luck with your snakes and finding a girlfriend.
