I feel sorry for the brother. You know the guy that actually OWNS the snake. The guy that successfully raised up a burm. to that impressive size. How many people have an 18 foot 200lb plus burm, raise you hand? That's what I thought. Now how many people out there have kept ANY snake alive for 16 years, raise your hand? Once again, that's what I thought. To raise a burm. to that size and to have kept one that length of time may not be unheard of but it is certainly admirable. With the propensity that burms. have for respirtory issues this is no small feat.
Excellent husbandry, a little bit of luck and good genes(on the the burms part).
Unfortunately the FL brother is an idiot. The owner trying to prepare the housing before moving the snake is once again doing the right thing. Every burm. owner in the country should be outraged at this. FL Wildlife while at one point admitting how big and seemingly well cared for yet can't take a moment to contact the owner and tell him the situation. My guess 16 years.
He leaves WV and drives straight to his brothers house to pick up his snake. FL is out of control. The media is a collection of fools. And my disappointment with the general public is at an all time low.D.C.
