Don't forget about the retic held at the Pittsburgh Zoo in the 1950's. This retic was shipped in from Malaysia, I believe, during the late 1940's at 22 feet, and was measured alive in 1956 at 28.5 feet and around 300 lbs. It is well documented by several sources and was probably the largest snake ever held in captivity. I have a photo of her that I will try to capture digitally and post.
