I have been thinking about owning an anaconda for a long time now. They do have a couple of strikes against them though, in my books, and can only see myself with yellow anacondas at best. Are these well tempered snakes? Obviously fresh outta nature they're probably not very nice, but captive bred captive raised handled animals of this species can mellow out right? I've only ever kept burmese pythons, only large snake experience though. I never could get myself a retic, as I hear they are the terrors right up there with green anacondas. Not just that they can be aggressive but almost guaranteed to get massive! I likes me massive snakes and all, I just like nice snakes more! I have a little girlfriend, and I want to make sure that between the two of us we can manage a serpent before we buy it, and I just dont see that happening for retics, amethystines, green condas, or african rocks! So this leaves me with Yellow Condas, Burms, Indian Rocks, and maybe one of the other larger morelias.

Any tips or advice on Yellows would be greatly appreciated all, I think they are just gorgeous!
