i think im going to get a burm
so as some of you know already i am a newbie. i was at a local pet shop today and was looking around for snakes. they only had 3 there. a pretty big ball python, but i've read those are very picky eaters... a corn snake which was very tiny, and a burmese python for $300.
the lady said the burmese python eats pretty well, and is pretty active, but it gets to 20 feet. the process however obviously takes years.
from what the lady told me, it seems as though caring for the burmese wouldn't be hard (as in requiring a ton of moderating skills), but being able to accomidate it might be harder as it will grow to be very large.
but i think i'm up for it, i'm a patient guy, and the snake would be in my room with me (im a programmer/designer so im in here a lot), so i wouldn't be neglectful..
what do you guys think? thanks.
