    I'll second the blood python suggestion!

    9' would be monstrously huge for a blood. Red bloods average 3-5'.. 6' isn't unusual. They can weith 30+ lbs though. Awesome animals. They look better and better as they age.

    You know I wander what the second person is going to do anyway if a 17ft 200 pound snake decides to constrict one of you. I dont think there would be much the other person could do in time. I just always wonder that. They are nothing but mucsle.

    I know personally that when/if I ever do get a burmese it will be a male so the odds of it getting to 17ft and 200 lb are pretty darn slim. For a large female I'd agree that it probably would be difficult even with two people. I have heard of people keeping vodka nearby. I guess you can splash it on the snake or something and it helps to get them to release.

    The alcohol thing works well from what I have heard. Vinager also works. A little dash of either and the snake should let go.

    yup if your partner has the chance when your being constricted to get to the mouth he should pour vodka down ther and they will let go. I saw it on a show on animal planet called the BIG squeeze where this uy got constricted by his burm because he got done playing with his chinchilla and didnt wash his hands and went to chnge the water in the snake cage.

    I saw that on Animal planet too. There was another one where a retic that hadn't eaten in months tried to kill the guy. They started to stab the snake to get it to let go. How stupid
