if this isent your first snake, i would go for it! if you are so determend to be a good resposable owner then i would buy one, but... there are some things you should do first! 1. buy a book on burms you can get some pretty cheap books at a place like half-price books, you can read it cover to cover in less than an hour. 2. if you have experance with boids in gereral than you would probly be ok. 3. do the whole hobby a favor and try to contact a local rescue, people are alwas trying to give up burms and if you want one try to think about these poor burms who are already 6,7,8+ feet but are in despret need of a good home.4. if this is your first snake then defenitly hold off! a burm can be aggressive at times and they **** like no other, my burm is about 6-7 feet and took a **** bigger than i do! also you need to have about 500 bux set aside and ready for the snake when it has to get a nice big cage. well i am not going to rant on any longer but when u get a burm dont plan on it being cute and cuddely, well i should say that cuz i think ALL snakes are cute and cuddley. dont plan on it being small for long, a burm can grow 9 feet in one year. but usaly grow about 7-8 in there first. do some reacerch and here are some links for you.
