If you're scared of snakes your fear may likely get worse. :ROFL:

Good luck...and make sure you have options for when they become too much to handle.
 
Hope you like breeding rabits, cleaning lots of waste and going to the hospital getting stiches because all are a normal part of having a large python. And reticulated pythons are one of the most demanding of all large pythons, very unpredictable and hard to tame animals, wille burmese despite all the bad publicity can turn out to be just big slugs(but still demanding and dangerous) Also you are assured that thouse snakes are wild cauth specimens wich isnt very good for the envoiremnt. I highly recomend that you give them to a reputable zoo NOW wille they are at least aparently in reasonable health and not later when they will require a 4 men to handle safely. If you want a lovely snake get a corn snake wich I know are readbly avaible in asia or another asian or northamerican ratsnake species. Big pythons are not a good snake to conquer fears or to mess around, they can literaly kill you, they are a legitimate choice if you have the resorces but not for the begginer or disposable pet owner
 
stuff like this is what I wanted to say but was being to nice because you DON'T get it. You are not taking this seriously "lolz"ing your ass off when you actually have a problem on your hands. Go get yourself a nice ball python or cornsnake to help you get over your fear. This snake is going to kill you because you have no clue as to what you are doing and arn't taking this seriously at all. This IS a BIG deal. You ARE in over your head. At least thats what you are showing us by all your replies. If you want to prove us wrong then tell us your plans on how to proporly house, keep, handle, feed and take care of this and stop taking it so lightly. That's why people are upset dude. Keep us updated. We would love nothing more than to give you advice and constructive criticism on any and all questions or plans you may have with this monstrosity of a creature.
 
I appreciate all of your concerns...
It may look like im not taking this seriously.
but ur worng...
look, i got a friend b4 who is keeping this kind of snake too...
and its already a monster, about 25 feet long. so all im saying is
I already got a clue on how to care for this snake...
but im not gonna keep it forever...
there is a nice zoo here that im sure is gonna adopt my snake
and take good care of it...
so as soon as it grows to about bigger than i can handle,
i know where to take it...
but don't get me wrong...
im not gonna dispose it there or anything like that,
im a pet lover. even ryt now i already love this snake,
and i know its gonna hurt my heart to give it away someday
but of course im also concern about it.
so I think u know now what i have in mind...
ok???
so less worries guyz...
 
excellent man, that's what we like to hear...kind of.
How big is too big for you and have you actually checked in with your zoo yet?
 
yup...
they told me that i can keep it as long as i can...
and they'll take over the responsibility as soon as I have it to them...
with agreement of course...
stating that they'll take good care of it...
house it well...
so on and so forth...
^_^

So at what point do you plan on passing this beauty off?
 
I can see by the way you are holding the one in the tops pics you have found out some of them can be quite nippy. Ive had alot of retics. Including a pair 16 and 19 feet long back in the 90s. They say they are the only snake with vision like a bird. They can make out their individual owners and dont just see shapes and movements like every other snake. Either way if that bigger looking one is striking at you now, get rid of it, it will always be a nervous adult. And seeing as how it can be 10 feet long at the end of its first year you dont want bitten. They are skinny but very very strong for their girth. IMO they are the best looking python by far and the only one I would consider getting again. but I would get the dwarf version if I ever got a new one. Personally I would try to trade those two for a Surinam Boa:) my other favorite snake.
 
lolz...
thanks for the info...
that really helped...
yeah... i already planed to give the 1st phyton to the zoo...
its not trained yet...
but the second 1 is already trained so i got no plablem with it, yet...
lolz...
