Forgive me but I am an experienced keeper. It's not like I just started doing this a few months ago so please do not treat me as though I am a newbie. I have been breeding and keeping snake and other reptile for almost 20 years and was a Vet Tech specializing in exotics. The people whom I said do the same practices as I have been breeding /keeping for 30 years.



I shared my experiences with the way I (and others) have raised large python species. Does that make my or their methods wrong???? Absolutely not. It just make my methods different from your or the next keepers.

To remove a young for feeding and to put it back into it's enclosure does not make the snake ill unless it's been fed a meal WAY to big and then is man handled immediatly after.

I am also meaning not removing a 14' plus snake due to their size and weight. Trust me I did not remove mine once they got above 16'. They were just to heavy.



Again I just shared my methods and experiences that have worked for me and others for many many years with zero incidents and zero illnesses.
