Hello I have had large burms in past but all have been gentle giants up to about 14ft. I have found a 7 to 8 foot albino burm at a local fleamarket its not in the best shape pretty thin and dirty no visible scaring. nose rub. No parasites supprisingly or bad shed.. Otherwise he is very active tryin to escape the dirty vision cage they have him in to get all the rats less then 3 ft in front of his cage.. I have more then adequete enclosure for him at home a 8x3x3 ft custom cage for him and am thinking about RESCUEING him tommorrow.. My questions are I was told by the workers that he is aggressive and bites but then he pays u no attnetion when u walk by him in the cage. I'm thinkin he is real skinny and just hungry and being teased with all the rats infron of him. How should I go about handleing him and figureing out his real temperment I'm 22 yrs old and 240lbs so I'm sure that I could pin him down if neccesary but I don't want to traumatize him I'm looking to doctor him up and keep him as a person pet.. Any advice on technique or handleing would be a great help.. As I said all my large burms are tame and show me no agression ever. Thanks in advance.

Jason
