    New Green Anaconda male





    Well I’ve always wanted to grab a male anaconda in order to not deal with more giant snakes to house, and finally came across the right snake at the right deal. So welcoming this boy into our family today. 2011 import.

    Flighty. Fighty. And bitey. But to be expected it day 1. Previous owner said he’s a handful when he wants to be and puppy calm whenever else he wants.

    Females are quite heavy bodied and long. But males are lower side of 6-8’ upper end of 14 and slender.

    Super cool pickup. I personally love the yellows, have one on my "pipe dream" list that'll never happen, hahaha.

    I've read some extremely varied info on temperaments of Condas. Hopefully yours chooses to be calm more often than feisty.
    Are there any known temperament differences males and females?

    Known. Nope. It’s more so individual based than gender specific. In reticulated pythons males are definitely more bitey during breeding season. Anacondas are just more or less Ill tempered with individual response giving more to it then anything else.

    I had never read anything regarding difference from male to female, so figured I'd ask.

    Thanks!
