Opinions on housing a pair of large pythons in a VERY large cage?

Please don't breed burms. We have too many in rescues already that were dumped off on unsuspecting or even unexperienced people. If you love the species, don't breed them.

I had thought of that before also. I don't think retics are that far behind them either as far as being abandoned. I was just looking at a reptile rescue site the other day and they actually had a male tiger retic up for adoption. I would have jumped on that in a heartbeat, but I want to make sure I have EVERYTHING set up and ready to go before I even start looking at babies. I'm really not interested in breeding retics or burms I just love the look and size of them. I'm currently putting together a very nice collection of BCI morphs that I will be breeding, but they are mostly going to be pets also. The main reason I am breeding them is because it is the only way I'll ever afford my rediculously expensive taste in morphs! If I can make enough extra cash to pay for all the cages, rats, vet bills, etc. that would be awesome too!

Agreed about retics. I will probably get flamed for this too but I'll say it. I don't like the idea of people breeding retics either. They are soon to be where burms are as you said, not to mention they are bred far more commonly and are prone to being nippy as babies. If you think about it, there aren't thousands and thousands of people than can care for adult retics, there are at least that many being born each year! I'd probably go for a monitor of some sort instead of a giant python personally if I had that kind of room. Make sure you get up pics soon though. I plan to get a pair of green tree monitors that will be in a giant cage as well.
