I'm going to have to agree with Gavin again on this one. From what I've read in this entire thread, you are not the least bit ready, or responsible enough to properly care for and maintain one of these animals. Yes, everyone has variate husbandry techniques. But you Blatantly show disrespect for the current animals in your care, then come in here and ask for advice on how to keep what is potentially the largest and most powerful constrictor on Earth? It's only my opinion (and opinions are like ball pythons...everybody has one), but I think some more research on the species is required, as well as maybe working with one first hand for a few months to get an idea of their general behavior. There are also several good books on captive husbandry of large constrictors, and anacondas in specific. I apologize if i sound harsh, but some of us have put years in with these animals, and have earned the right to keep them in our homes.
