    Re: Biggest snake on the forum?

    This is Marty a couple years ago, with my kids. He's now closer to 14 feet, but I don't have a camera as I keep buying herps!

    Good eye, Denial!

    Yeah, I have a pair of ackies in there, though they will be moving shortly to a 6x3 so I can make room for the growing bp collection along that wall.

    Besides herps, I'm always making new enclosures and getting food for the horde!

    I don't advocate for exposed electrical fixtures within my animals enclosure. You can buy...or very easily build your own protective covers. You can find them at this website...http://www.pythons.com.au/Reptile_Products_lighting.htm

    Sure...people say "well I have never had an issue with my reptiles and lights in there cage..." But I think it is an accident waiting to happen thus putting your animal in danger.

    ...eh everyone is a critic right?

    Exposed ligthing is not really a problem with monitors.

    I don't believe it would be either but I believe he is refering to the electrical outlet you can barely see that is behind Chris' daughter.

    Re: Biggest snake on the forum?

    Do not currently own any 20' snakes. My burm is in an 8x4, but if he exceeds 15 feet and 200 lbs. that will become a 12x4.

    Jerhart mentioned "exposed electrical fixtures within" enclosures. Obviously he doesn't keep monitors. Putting a cover over the lights (like I do in the burm's enclosure) just gives the lizards something to hang onto, thus increasing the possibility of burns.

    This is a 3 page long thread about pics of giants, and I'm the only one to have posted a pic... What's up with that?
