Is that a normal fer-de-lance? If so be careful how much you feed it. While in Panama several years ago I caught a neonate. In 2 years it was 6 1/2 feet of very dangerous critter. That was by far the fastest growing snake I have ever owned. It not only got big but, she thought she was a whipsnake. I ended up giving it to Joe Teska at the Snake Farm in New Braunfels, TX. He kept it for several years and got it big enough to eat cottontail size rabbits with ease.
