@ OP that page is about retics but it's basically about handling big snakes. I think you could get some general info out of it regarding handling and safety as burms get huge as well.

Re: I want to get a berm any info would be great
Are we forgetting he currently has a ten foot boa? He already has a large snake. So maybe those with actual experience could answer his questions or give some helpful advice? Novel I know.......

Re: I want to get a berm any info would be great
Burms are great. I love mine. If you're serious read up and try to get some hands on with an adult Burm. Then buy. Baby and grow up with it.

Re: I want to get a berm any info would be great
Oshawa, where you live, has laws prohibiting keeping these animals. Your boas as well. The local herp shop was recently shut down after they were found to be selling prohibited animals and later the owners (breeders) home was raided and they incurred thousands of dollars in fines. Google it. I forget the shops name. I believe all their animals were confiscated as well. This was just a month or two ago.
Check out the bylaws... might as well know the risk you're taking before you take it.

imo,theres a difference in not being ready for,a small managable snake.....
compaired to a large snake (12ft plus) ,thats more than capable of killing a keeper
to the op
i'm not saying you are not aware,i'm only pointing out that burms are very powerfull snakes
cheers shaun

Re: I want to get a berm any info would be great
Zero.. knowledge about Burmese pythons, hmmmm?
Wait who would have thunk it to ask on a reptile forum for some answers to very very basic questions....
Three pages and only three answers that I counted to the OPs again basic questions.... Hmmmm?

I am with you guys on this one. How is someone suppose to learn about the kind of snake they are interested in if no one is willing to give out info? I wouldn't be surprised if he has stopped reading the thread.

Like i said before if he has any question just ask. I use to own 7 Burmese pythons and have over 8 years experience with them. My biggest was a 13.5 foot baby and my smallest was a 6 foot demon.

Yes I know Chuck you are one of the few good guys... I just wish more people would stop shooting someone down before looking into it further.
