My first snake ever was quite a number of years ago. It was a baby Burmese Python and I had absolutely no clue what I had gotten myself into. I was heading to college and snuck her and her 10 gallon aquarium into the dorm room. Needless to say she quickly outgrew that enclosure. It took about 10 months before someone in the dorm ratted me out that I had it and I was informed by the staff that either the snake or me had to go. I went and got an apartment off campus. This Burmese never attempted to strike at me or anyone else and was a perfect lady. I had numerous other reptiles over the years both venomous and not, from tiny to her. When I left college and could not take her with me to my new place to live, I gave her to a friend who was also a herper. At that time she was 16.5 feet and around 90-100 lbs. I will never forget that snake.
