HOw bad are large pythons really? Not sure what you mean by bad. They can kill you, not sure what article you read, either about the asst. zoo keeper or what. You will learn from you snake when and when not to mess with it. However it is snake and could strike whenever. I was in your place once, and well I just jumped in and did it. I still have that thought everytime I deal with it but it keeps me alert. I like my Super Tiger, and Amel, but Tigers are also good. My burm was really laid back to. You need to work with it and you will understand it as it grows. That is why you get so many answers, but its better to get captive born and bred. Wild caughts can be aggressive. If you like the size of these you may want to look into a blood python. They get just as thick but not as long.



Good Luck.





I've wrote a few people asking them but Can never get a straight answer out of them.

And can never find any good info online other then how horrible they are to keep.

I suppose what I really need is a good explanation.

I understand that it varies from snake to snake and species to species but what variables would be needed to turn the odds in my favor of landing a nice calm and tame retic or burm?
