Re: Best big snake?

Re: Best big snake?

I was hit by both scrubs and carpets. My icon pic is a scrubbie hit. If you want to start small, and work your way up to get comfortable with semi aggressive snakes. Start with a baby carpet. They are good fun!

Only Greg and Chuck Norris block punches and snakebites with their faces, frees up the hands to fight back.

I can attest to scrubbie violence. You think hyperbole when you hear the phrase 'face eater,' but I swear my Aru scrub enjoys the taste of human flesh.

As does Greg's. His are Aru Scrubs to. Their some of the smallest scrubs, but most aggressive scrubs there are.

Re: Best big snake?

My big coastal when he bites it is all feeding response he is always hungry. One day he literally tried to eat the carpet. It took me 10 minutes to work his face out of it.

That's kinda something you want to know before acquiring them.
Yellow anacondas should be provided a basking temperature of 90-92º F. with an ambient temperature of 81-83º F. 60% humidity, a humid hide helps too.

Re: Best big snake?

What size tank can I use for a red-tailed boa? What kinds of red-tails are there, and which one should I get? Can anybody give me some good care pointers?

yes, he's a carpet munching carpet. Had I not been worried about his teeth, I would have laughed at him.
