    you know why people get irritated by you? because you are so high up on that soap box giving proclamations of inferiority that you obviously have ZERO time for any actual husbandry.

    its amazing to me. such a perfect God of herps among us all. praise be.....

    just dont know why you cant be productive. oh....wait. i remember. you dont have time. so shut up and go away.
    Speaking of irritating posts, you just produced a dilly of one.

    Now that it is plain to the rest of the forum that you have some sort of fascination with Wilomn, I must ask you what you plan on doing about?

    Are you going to gaily pursue him from thread to thread, inviting him to frolic? Or are you going to continue to post theories on what he does in his free time? Your posts on him are getting progressively more regressive - I am expecting nothing but bad things for you from here.

    Since your infatuation is based solely on his posts, and seeing as you are having a hard with the dual concepts of irony and sarcasm, maybe you should put him on "ignore" and make life less agonizing for you.

    Or you could take your own advice and:

    I would strongly recommend the latter.



    To the OP:

    The snake was originally in a glass aquarium - correct? If that is the case, it is doubtful that the move from a glass aquarium to an enclosed 4x2 cage is making him feel insecure. To the pea-brained snake, lizard (or turtle) , there is no understanding of complex spatial relationships - an open on four sides glass enclosure would simply seem spatially larger than 4x2 closed in cage.

    As some have suggested, it could be related to not feeding him enough. It could also be that your burm is just an jerk. If that's the case, the decision is simple:

    Do you, as a potential future parent want a giant aggressive snake in your house? While I appreciate that you have experience with boas, a burm is, pardon the expression, a whole 'nother animal. Much longer, much heavier and much more than capable of hurting you or someone else.

    If the answer is "no"? Are you willing to take the time to ensure that it goes to an experienced keeper who wants to and more importantly CAN deal with a giant, aggressive snake?

    If again, the answer is "no" - then I would recommend a one way flight to (Youth-In) Asia.
