    A few more things to think about: with a really large enclosure to house that giant snake, it's going to be lots of 'fun' to clean and disinfect. You haven't had many
    snakes yet...the more active ones have been known to slide thru their feces & smear them around some, not intentionally of course...simply because they're wild animals
    that do not understand walls. If you don't keep enclosures clean, you'll have a sick snake, and sometimes snakes mess up their cages at the most awkward times. It's
    literally a BIG commitment, and one that's going to last for 20-30 years. There's a reason that many giant snakes go up for adoption, so I hope you give a lot of thought
    to this before jumping in. This is a pet that can easily limit your social options, & there's nothing sadder than raising an adorable little snake that grows into something
    you just can't live with (or that your "significant other" can't live with). It's NOT easy to find good new homes for such things: zoos get free offers constantly, and their
    answer is rarely if ever "yes".
