hello and welcome. can wait to see pics of your green conda, im a fan of the big snakes as well ,go big or go home lol jk since joining the forum i expanded my addiction to all breeds big or small.it was bad enouph before but thanks to these guys here,not only will i need a whole house for the large snakes i want, i will need one for all the little ones i like now as well lol. just a question for you, i read that green anacondas got a musky smell to them that does not go away and they smell pretty bad all the time and gets much worse when they are large? like an oil that excreats from there skin so when you hold them you stink after. not sure how bad this smell really is or if its 100% true but i figure ill ask and find out. they look so sweet i love the pattern, i almost got one before i got my retic but that was the reason i didnt.

Well Anaconda's do smell bad but only when the cage is not clean.
They smell a little stronger then most but no diffrent if you clean the cage proper.
And it can be a strong smell yes.
And one rule is to be able to drink out of thier water dish.
And you don't need a big pond in there ether.
You can have a dish like any other Boa.

ah i was thinking that they didnt smell that bad if kept properly. good to know becuase i would love to get one.

[fflamingmoe]

Where are you planning to get one if you do?
I know that you looked around a bit eh?
They do get big but grow slow.
I would recommend a Green Male.
But that's up to you because i'm looking at Females.
I don't like Yellows just because i don't like the colors and are a bit on the krankie side but they are smaller.
