I actually have about 20 years of of expierence (I'm 28). All I keep are boas and pythons. Information is available everywhere but it's vague. "You will eventually have to feed your Burmese python very large prey items - i.e. big rabbits. Take the time to find resources for bigger prey items so that you may take into account the acquisition & cost of feeders prior to your Burm reaching adult size." That's straight from N.E.R.D. That's great, and that's exactly what I'm trying to do. But is big 2 6lbs. rabbits or one 8lbs. rabbit? It sounds simple but finding a feeder pig in the middle of Newark or Manhattan can be a little tricky. What I'm looking for is "One thing the caresheets don't tell you is..." or things like that. The things that woking with them for 15 years teach you that you won't find in books. I don't wanna to be one of those ***holes that gets into it and then realizes I can't get a pig within 80 miles of here.
