NO I dont breed,Nor do I sell. I just posted that picture because we dont see Yellows that large in our forum. The link that you have posted has a yellow that is maybe five foot and a picture of some guys with a green.

That is the sales pitch, maybe you misunderstood me.

Just like when burmese pythons and reticulated pythons get
sold, many times the potential size is down-played or just
out and out lied about.

The yellow anaconda pictured under the '4 meters' link is over
ten feet long, or else those people in the picture are
dwarfs...

I agree with Mr anaconda. Large green and 4-5' yellow.

That is a nice pic of a big yellow there. It looks to me no more than 10 ft. though. I was at the Staten Island Zoo last week and they have a very large yellow conda. It was probably 12 to 14 ft. Weird, they were only feeding it medium rats. Well its a zoo I guess they know what they are doing huh?
