    Geeze. I can't be the only person terrified by a snake that can reach all the way up a door and still have plenty of body on the ground...:bow::bow:

    She seems so laid back. How often do you handle her. She also looks awesome. I wish I could own one. However I don't have someone to help me handle one.

    The big green is a total sweetheart. Never bit once. The hybrid is a total psychopath. And the baby axanthic yellows are pretty chill once you get them out. In the tub they are like typical baby yellows.

    Wow they are so beautiful. I can't imagine owning one though, where do you keep it?! In my personal opinion, I think the biggest of reptiles should be left in the wild so they can have needed space, unless you can provide them with a room. Still gorgeous though.

    I'm fascinated by all snakes...especially the giant's. I think the biggest I'd own is a super dwarf retic though.

    We own 55 retics and 40 anacondas plus various other species. 120 snakes in all.

    You'd be surprised how little room they actually require for housing. People think they need an entire room, when the reality is many keepers have done this, and found they curl up into the smallest corner and don't move.

    We house them in moderate appropriate sized enclosures, and allow them time to explore an stretch either outdoors, or in the house when the weather is too cold. They do quite well with this time to stretch and interact and seem very content in their enclosures in between.

    It really is mind blowing to walk into our snake room and get to play with all the big ones. Makes you appreciate life everyday.

    I just don't see how humans can provide their needs. Food size needs to be huge, and they need more than a room. Especially anacondas, because they like to swim a lot. I personally find it unfair to keep these beautiful monsters in captivity, but what you do is your business.

    Think we've got "huge" food items covered lol.

    I feed around 150lbs of prey items a week. My rat bill per month alone is more than most people's mortgage. We have probably $25,000 in caging.

    Ours don't just survive, they thrive, but they don't ever have to worry about starvation, predation, disease, or natural disasters like they would in the wild.

    They were born in captivity and captivity is all they know. They live a very posh life.

    Wow guys, that has to be adrenaline pumping!!! You have the right name for your business! I always marveled at all of the giant snakes of the world and wondered what it would be like to own one. Never thought about having more than one though. That has to be a heck of a daily experience! I will go to your page and check you guys. Thanks for all those pics man! Reptiles rule everywhere! Stay in peace and not pieces. :gj:

    To bad the Lacey act has now officially killed owning Anancondas or Retics now, at least for me here in Washington State as I'm sure there is next to no breeders up here if I ever decide I want something like a SD Retic :( On a side note though, nice looking Anacondas there.

    Don't give up, we're all still fighting the good fight. The judge comes back with his ruling on the injunction tomorrow and so far it looks good for usark. We can and will win this fight.
