"They're my babies,'' Cooper said of his pets -- a 16-foot albino Burmese python named "Coconut" and an 18-foot Columbian red-tailed boa named "Silicone"

With a salary of $389,000, Cooper found he had to economize to afford the rabbits, small goats, pigs and chickens that Coconut and Silicone demand on a bi-weekly basis.

anyone think this is a crazy feeding schedule?

and for all us canadians that love that rescue in BC that loves to bash the hobby someone just gave them some more ammo against us here you go

I'll need to see a picture of that. An 18 foot boa would be very impressive to say the least.

I personally think thats not possible, no matter how much you feed it.

Yeah it says Columbian. They didn't even spell it right it's Colombian. Even if it was a Colombian BCC female at best maybe 12 feet. But every time someone starts a post asking to see the biggest BCC you never see them. If anyone in Canada has a 15' BCC and can prove it I'll mail a check for $50 to the first person who can prove. But just in case there is more than one, I'm only writting one check.lol

Tell you what, I'll up Trevors ante'. If anyone in Canada has a boa of any species or sub species that is 15' or larger I'll pay $1000 cash for it.
And I'll even let you collect Trevor's $50 first.

Edit: I will put the exclusion on recently imported WC Anacondas.
