    Re: I want a Male Burmese Python
    Well that's just your opinion.....

    Burm's are harder to find homes, yes....but many more boas, ball pythons, corn snakes, cali kings etc go through rescues every year than Burmese Pythons do. If you wouldn't give a penny to a breeder that's fine, however he came here asking where he could get one.....

    If all those snakes go through rescues than thats no good either but the fact is that there are so many unwanted burms in rescues and shelters that they have to put them down occasionally. The fact is that there is just not as many people that can properly care for a snake that gets that large as there are babies being produced. I just gave my oppinion on it with a no pun intended. I just don't see a reason to support such a breeder when they are really doing more harm to the herp keepers in the long run

    Re: I want a Male Burmese Python
    Yes, you clarified that. You don't seem the reason to support such breeders. Well I have bred, and building my colony back up to breed Burmese Python's again.... If you don't like it and won't support it, that's your choice. However again, they came here looking where they could get one, and not why they "shouldn't" support the Burmese Python trade....


    Not to start a fight, but PM me the "proof" that you have to back up your sayings and claimings, as well as how these breeders are hurting everyone in the long run, please.

    I simply said that I wouldn't buy from a breeder and the reason.

    Yes I have bro. I have called every pet store from Titisville to Ormond Beach! That is like 4 cities north and 4 cities south. Not one single store has any hatchling/baby male albino burms... only there adult breeders. I'm trying my hardest to obtain one without paying some outlandish price and shipping. So you will honestly give me a tame baby male albino burm? That would be fantastic!

    EDIT: I actually have a 24" (guess) long baby albino burm that probes/pops female! We could trade?

    EDIT: Oh yes and when I mention that I couldn't find a baby male albino burm... I meant I couldn't find a burm at all.. not be specific to alb when searching!

    im in jacksonville and have tons of burms. i dont ship non venomous so you will have to pick up. all the hatchlings are pretty nippy because they came from a gravid female i caught in the everglades(never caught an albino before) so there is no guarentee they will calm down.

    Hmm... the worst that could happen is that they are to nippy for me! Are they handleable? If I pick one up with a glove transfer it to another hand then remove the glove am I in the safe?
