Re: Any idea on what the strike speed is for a Burmese Python?
I specifically chose a rainbow so she wouldn't get too big. There's a snake at work 10-12 foot burm who is so bad none of us even get him out without at least 2 other people around. There's also a 13-15 foot one who is pretty calm, but still, none of us handle him alone. The rest of them, 3 6-8 foot ones, are usually good, but we still have the knives & alcohol. Of course, no one likes to get the aggressive one out because he's extremely aggressive and cage possessive. The guys at work tell me not to even mess with him. As for getting a snake to let go and stop constricting if I were the only one in that room, my boss keeps a syringe of rubbing alcohol we can squirt into the snakes mouth to get it to let go as well as me carrying a large knife, just in case. I'm not sure exactly what was up with the snake, but I know that the girl and I were both shocked. She wasn't in shed either, that's what I wondered about at first. Some of guys she knows we're down stairs and they freaked out more than I did lol.
