Finally saw the wrath of my burm
Rattlesnakes all day long, no problem. Giant python in a feeding response, no thanks, let's not do that again. I couldn't get my burm to eat outside so I tried inside. After she finally killed it and started on the head I tried to get out the door. She instantly let go and started hissing loud as hell and violently striking at me. She is amazingly friendly when not in food mode. She was nice and toasty, fast and mean. I was cornered and I had no way to get to the door, had dropped my hook and all I had to fend her off was a step stool, which wasn't working too well. This is why 2 people are a must, i'm glad I had someone there to help block the strikes while passing me a noose wand to get her under control long enough to get out of the corner and escape. Good lesson learned, always have a second person, and a back up plan. Giant pythons can land you in more trouble than hots....
Still trying to find someone to take my red tail and albino burm for free. I don't need another monster to deal with like that, especially since he's always aggressive.
