    @ YungRasputin: So I'm just curious, how long have you been keeping snakes now? And how big are the snakes you currently have?

    just a couple years, and my biggest snake is my scrub that’s somewhere around 5-7 feet, it’s difficult to measure because they like, never stop moving lol

    my post wasn’t meant to be condescending nor was it intended to be received as a jab at other’s peoples experience or keeping - my point was primarily that within the exotic keeping circles i have seen, i have noticed that different people want different things
