Hallo bp-net community, my name is Dave and I'm a snake addict.
This is my first post here and I din't know how to introduce myself
I'm 22 years old and I write from Italy. I own a couple snakes, 2.4 ball pythons and 1.1 corns, and a couple week ago I eventually bought my first male burm.
My question is, how big should I expect it to get?
I know males can get up to 12 ft or so, but I think it's like you ask how big your ball can grow and they tell you it can get up to 5 ft.
Some people with experience in large constrictors told me 12 ft, other people told me I have to overfeed to make it reach this size and 9 ft is a more reasonable size for a male burm with an average feeding schedule.
Another one said he should stay smaller since it's het green.
What have I to do and think now?
I have to tell you I'm going to establish a conservative feeding routine, but I don't want it to loose any inch...So I thought to feed it a medium sized prey every 7 days, every 10 when he'll reach 5 foot.
I hope your experience will help me and my new snake
Oh, a couple pics...thanks.
