Hello--

Wow, you have a lot to take into consideration. With regular feedings, this snake will grow quickly. Large constrictors are a lot of responsibility, cost, and husbandry. Depending upon where you live, there may be laws against keeping a snake over a certain length. Do the research on the species before making any decisions. Burms are beautiful animals, but they aren't for everyone. Even if puppy-dog tame, this species grows into a powerful, potentially dangerous constrictor. If you decide not to keep the animal, please make sure that it goes to an informed person or to a reptile rescue.

rgds,

althea
