Giant Maneating Serpent!!!!! $1
last night i found myself in the oklahoma county fair and they had a raised tank with (so you couldnt see the snake inside) with a big booth about a " GIANT MANEATING SERPENT!! haha over 300 lbs... and so on and so on.
anyways... it was a dollar just to look at it, and i stood there for about 5 minutes thinking about how much of a rip it is to pay $1 to just look at a snake.
yeah... i paid it.
it was a big, fugly snake. haha i couldnt even tell what it was. i am guessing a retic, but im not sure. the head was buried under it body, so i couldnt tell much about it.
just wanted to post and let you know... and if anyone knows what kind of snake it was, let me know.
Re: Giant Maneating Serpent!!!!! $1

I don't think any snake, especially retics, are "fugly"...

Retics don't have to be overfed to be over 300lbs. Just look at Bob Clark's female retic "Fulffy". Twenty foot plus and over 300lbs. She doesn't look the least bit overweight.

That's right! I prefer "snugly" :)
Re: Giant Maneating Serpent!!!!! $1
I saw the same type of display at a fair in Hillsdale, Mi. It was an overfed Burmese python there.

Bob Clark also doesn't display his retics as Giant Maneating Serpents and show them off for $1 at county fairs lol.
Just saying there are a lot of giants in captivity are overweight and lazy.

It can be easier than you think if they spend their entire lives in a small cage. They need to come out every now and then to stretch out and exercise.
Re: Giant Maneating Serpent!!!!! $1
forgive me for the fugly remark... im a BP guy... not too much into the giants.

When was the last time you actually looked at Fluffy up close. She is a lot of flab right now. A beautiful snake but still a bit overweight.

She's reached her maximum length. So all she will do now is gain weight. Getting a bit old as well. Metabolism has also slowed down a lot. She can't do much more...
Re: Giant Maneating Serpent!!!!! $1
Why was it "fugly?"
I paid $1 at our county fair to see this guy's big burm. It was not overweight and was actually housed in a good-sized, comfortable enclosure. We ended up talking herps with the guy who owned her for about half an hour.
Pretty sad, but sometimes in this area, fellow herpers are so scarce that one has to pay them to talk herps! :)
