    Question What's the biggest snake you would like to have?

    So, what is the biggest snake you would like to get and why that snake of that size?

    Me personally, I love big snakes, heck I love all snakes, but I have to limit myself to a certain size (8 feet, but no bigger than 10) simply because I am unable to house or feed or manage a snake like a burm or mainland retic. So, the biggest species that I will be able to get are columbian boas ( not many though, may three or so.) I like them for their size, to me they are perfect, not too big nor not to small. I have also been considering for the longest time about a dwarf male retic, but I am not completely sure about one of those.(still in the deciding process on them)

    Dont get me wrong, bps are great fun and all, but they are not the only ones I am after.

    Blackheaded python. They get 10-12 feet(I think) but are not hugely bulky like burmese, retics, or boas.
    That's about it for me. I'm hoping to have enough money to get one next year.

    Re: What's the biggest snake you would like to have?

    I would love some big snakes, but I am limited to snakes I can handle alone because my husband does not like snakes.

    So, under 6 feet for heavy-bodied snakes
    sky's probably the limit for slender snakes like colubrids.

    A Black Blood Python, Male or Female (im putting a down payment on a male tomorrow). This is probably the largest im going to go for awhile. A nice larger boa in my future isnt unlikely though
