    What if BP's were a bigger species? Would u keep them?

    But let’s say if BP’s were actually a larger species of pythons. How big of a snake could u handle? how much ball is too much? could u handle a BP that’s double the size of the current species? What if it were a really big snake?

    At the moment, I think I would max at a BP double the size. I think i can handle an 8 feet python, maybe push a 10 feeter.

    What about u?
    My lovely Dwarf Burm is virtually a very big Ball / Royal Python

    He's as soft and placid as my Royals with the inquisitiveness and feeding response of a Retic : - he's maxed out at just under 6' .
