Could this python truly weigh 400lbs?.

It was on news . His neighbor turned him in . Guy kept it in his yard shed / screen enclosure and no permit thus confiscated .

Not illegal to keep anything outside but enclosure on news did look weak .

Hi.it seems a bit too much for me!

Sounds excessive even it it's 18ft. It's more likely to be around half that.

Thanks . I know nothing about pythons but do know media loves to distort reality .

Looking at it on tv it seemed by girth that 400 would be unreal .

Definitely more than half that, but 400 sounds like they just rounded up from the high 200's.

400 lbs i think the pet carrier would have broken

I have a male Burm that measures out at exactly 18' and he's 32" around...they said that one was only 30"...and mine (as of 2 weeks ago on an empty belly) weighed in at 214lb.

what about the largest snake, the ANACONDA? how much do the giant CONDAS that role around in the swamps of the AMAZON, weigh? they are true monster snakes

I heard just over 200 was around average...
Maybe if it was a 25ft rock python I would have believed it.
