Oh wow.. haha well that's an entirely different scenario. They don't need food quite as often as Ball Pythons but their prey items obviously get more expensive as they get larger.

This makes more sense. People ball morphs normally don't just drop it off somewhere.

I'd still like to see a photo.
Nothing against you or your wife, but I've seen people swear up and down a ball was a burm before. Of course I know better, but it does happen.
Of course, a Burmese is going to be a LOT more work, but there is even a great forum here for Burms and other large snakes.
Best wishes!

That will be a very serious undertaking. If you are up for it then wonderful. If not than I'm sure a local herp society can help him out. They are beautiful but a whole 'nother ball o' wax compared to a ball python! Good luck with whatever you decide
