Awesome! Do you have to watch out for anything particular when taking them outside to play in the grass? I mean any kind of bugs or anything that you need to worry about them picking up?
He has to watch out for neighbors coming by and swiping them! I know I'd be tryna steal them, they're awesome! :)

Lol thanks man. I actually do watch out for my neighbors. I don't want them knowing I have a new car worth of snakes in my snake room.
Plus people get scared of snakes and call the city and give me hassle.

Plus our climate here doesn't support many bugs that would cause detriment to the snakes. It's still dropping down to 40° at night right now, and 80-85° in the daytime.

Ok I promised I would switch it up a bit too, so here are a few pictures of my Male Albino Burmese Python. He is roughly 2-1/2 years old, 8ft long, and about 18lbs. Haven't had a tape on him or him on a scale for quite awhile. He has a retic like feeding response and gentle once you get him out. Can be a little feisty in the enclosure.
Nice banana. My burmese is a quarter dwarf and refused to grow! He's turning 3 this July and is 5 ft!!

Yep my neighbors stare and this is why I always do shoots in the backyard. Did one in the front one time and the venue across the street flipped even though I do snake shows for them often.

That's pretty crazy that they would flip AFTER knowing you have snakes, let alone after using your services with the snakes. Some people.
But let's face it, snakes aren't everyone's favorite animals, and Giant snakes are usually near or at the top of the list for most feared. People are afraid of hots too, but at least they are native in the US. We don't have any 14-25' snakes here native lol.
We not only get to be the wierd bad guys, but the SUPER wierd bad guys lol.
