Can someone educate me about these snakes? I'm having trouble finding comprehensive information about them. Some say they are monsters, others say they can be tamed. Some sites say they grow to 25 feet and others say they top out between 10-16 feet. Some recommend you house them separately and other keepers seem to keep them in pairs or trios. And then what do the terms bar neck, Aru, Mollucan, Halmahera, Merauke, and Tanimbar mean?



A huge thank you to anyone who can clear some of this up for me and fill me in on the general info and care for these snakes.



Thanks,



Terry
