Why do you feel Black headed Pythons are "too much snake"?

Are you referring to size?
Because most of the bigger BHPs you see have been overfed.

Most BHPs found in the wild are under 7 feet with most being around 6. And a skinny 6 at that.
Yes there are bigger ones out there in the wild but, typically they are not "a large bodied" snake.

I have 5 foot breeders. In fact, I know guys that have Womas that are bigger than some of my BHPs. It's all in the feeding and one thing you do not want to do with a BHP is... over feed it.
