Hey All,I have a couple questions about keeping anacondas. I am finding it a little difficult to find the information I am after regarding captive bred male anacondas as "pets"? I am curious of the length a male generally reaches in captivity. I VERY aware theses are large snakes, however I already own a retic and there will be more to come. I have also heard a lot of people say that their anacondas are very calm and docile. I consider myself a collector/handler I handle my snakes almost daily (of course not when it is not safe, feeding, shedding etc..) That being said I like to comfortable enough with my snakes to "hang out" with them (sitting on the couch, laying in the grass, etc..) is that achievable with condas? I always have someone around when I am with my "big snakes" typically 8' plus.

Thanks for the info!
