    Uhh, Afrocks are known to get nearly as big as burms If I'm not mistaken. Sri lankan/ceylonese and indian pythons max around 12 ft I think.

    Scrub (amethystine) pythons get about 15ft too, but have a thinner build. Some have been known to get much larger than 15 feet. (up to 28 feet, I read )

    I would say African Rock. I think they are the 3rd largest snake, besides The anaconda and retic.

    He is asking for a snake one step below a Burm. You would recommend an afrock before a burm?

    I take it you are wanting a burm, but are wanting some experience with larger snakes first?
