    This has to be a joke, no way someone sold that without saying its a burm. I live in florida and twice they caught burmese pythons IN MY SCHOOL, they are massive, and the oficcer that caught one of them...... i didnt know an arm could become that tone of purple. You dont play with an angry burmese python.

    I really hope this is a joke, or else that poor snake is in for it. Burmese pythons are huge, powerful, and potentially dangerous snakes. Please look into rehoming or selling it. Plenty of people would buy it for a low price, or maybe give you a better suited snake such as a BP or corn snake, in return. Corn snakes are tiny and very slim compared to a burm. Honestly, if you can't tell that what you have isn't a corn, you might need to choose a pet other then a snake. Ever heard of the python problem in Florida? When that snake gets too big to handle easily, what are you going to do with it? Let it go? I hope not. And you need to wait until you actually have someone to help you handle a huge python like that. Future girlfriends don't count. Anyway, good luck with your burm.

    No one can possibly be this ignorant and naive. At least I hope not. Good Lord!

    x2, but I've seen a lot of impulse buying in reptiles, amphibians, fish, etc. Some people just don't know any better. If the OP actually just purchased this snake, I hope they are ready to commit. OP: If you indeed need help with your snake, start another thread where people can give you tips about its care. What size enclosure do you have right now?

    Well I don't know about you, but I was BORN with this gift. :D

    I don't think this guy is trolling for what it's worth.

    I think the OP is trolling, just after the girlfriend post LOL

    And if not, please sell the snake to an experienced home as soon as you can. There's really no question about it, and it's not about whether you have enough "money and space" or not.
