    Never heard of Monster Feeders. I like their site... but I'm a sucker for pics of little kids with these huge animals. They help make the hobby look friendly and more respectable.

    They also offer 8 foot enclosures for $550, or so. Don't know what shipping would be. Honestly, as long as the current enclosure is adequate, I wouldn't worry about that until you get feeders in place, and have a clean bill of health from the new vet.

    Slow and steady. You don't want to get stressed out with this.

    This.

    That said, I have two of the Monster 8'x2.5'x18" enclosures and love them as they are very sturdy and easy to clean out. Mine have the center dividers as well, which is very convenient for breeding medium-sized snakes like boas, or you can move a pissy larger snake to one side, put in the divider, clean the empty side, move the snake over, clean the other side...

    I also found a local pig farmer who now puts his stillborn piglets into the freezer for my larger snakes. He used to just throw them into the compost pile as he had no idea people would pay for those!

    It helps that I get half a hog from him for the chest freezer every spring and fall.

    The snake may not have an RI, I have read that sometimes you can hear large snakes breathing from another room!

    Burms are definitely known for being vocal snakes.
