Posted by: gothicretics at Thu Jan 13 10:14:52 2005 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by gothicretics ] Do u have a copy of General Care and Maintenance of Burmese Pythons: Including Notes on Other Large Pythons by Philippe de Vosjoli? Its one of the best books writen about the are of giant constrictors there is alot of good info in this book. The chapter on feeding was very well done. also gives all the steps u should keep in mind when your handling a large snake or feeding one. It is a really well written book. As for the retics I have had several i have 2 now they can not swallow a person there was a record of man in S.E asian getting attacked by one (this was a very large female)and she couldn't swallow past his hips. The other thing was this man was a herder he was working with sheep they found him with his flock the retic most likly thought he was one of the sheep and grabed him. Retics are not like burms there much much more intellagent. They do not normally mistake people for food. Thats a burm trick. I would be very very supirsed if that retic at the zoo u went to is 24 feet. The largest retic i kno of is Fluffy who is owned by bob clark and i'm pretty sure she is alittle bit shy of 24. some one correct me if i'm wrong but i'm pretty sure she is under 24 feet.
