    First and only bite from a large python, plan to keep it that was for as long as possible to. ;)

    Not even ten minutes after posting that I went in to do snakes, my Albino Retic who just started feeding again tagged me and let to, right after she just stared at me like like it never even happened!! Just proves... Karma is real! :O

    Size restrictions here are 8', and I could honestly care less, but if it would ever need to go to a vet... I'd be a bad owner if I bought an animal that couldn't be seen by a vet. Plus, if I got one, and I'd have to get a baby and tell my mom it's a Ball Python LOL

    LOL.. That would be priceless... But yes, even when laws do suck to abide by, we must either follow them or move, the same goes with the Lacey Act...l myself wish I could own a Caiman, but here in IL we can't. In the end we must be responsible owners, wether we focus on conversation through education or we just pass on the love of reptiles to our friends.. Just remember! Enjoy every minute of the HOBBY. :)

    I know about 20 people here who own Burms, Retics, etc, etc.. I visit their snakes regularly, but I couldn't risk owning an animal, and watching it suffer because a vet won't see it.

    It's just soo hard... They are friends of mine (some of them) and constantly offer me burms and retics at low prices, and I actually have to stop myself and make the right decision!! Lol I hate it!!

    Also, just wondering because of your name, were you born in '97? (6/1/97, over here).

    Boaphile has a cage that's 8' x 4' or 2' x 2'. That'd probably work for awhile.

    That's a pretty good cage, for the time being my girl is in a 41 quart rack. We're working on building a multiple level tall rack for my 3 (soon to be four) giants.

    Burms are awesome snakes. When I was at the show I walked around with Beanie's granite burm. I'll post pictures later today.

    I used to play, but not anymore. And I have only heard good things about Boaphile! I think the 8' enclosures are a good $450-ish, though

    Well... Besides the fact that it takes about 2 months to get to you.
