5 Giant Snakes As Good Pets…Or Are They? 

We’re actually still building it! A lot of it has to do with me reading her body language and how she is before I pick her up

You’d be wasted in 10 minutes

Thank you!

How long have you had it for?

Thank you!

If you’ve done the research and have a place for eventual adult proper housing, you do you

It’s the official record that I could reference multiple times with credited sources. I know there were other ones including a 25 foot one that was fairly accurately verified as well as longer lengths for some of the other species too but I went with “official.” It’s kind of like how there’s never been a recorded human predation by an anaconda but ask the people that live there. I’ll make a note to clarify that in the description

That 403 burmese python you are referring to was named Baby and she was owned by serpant safari. I've actually seen her in person when she was in wisconsin dells. After she died, she was later remeasured to be 18ft 10 inches. The original measurement was found to be faulty. To my knowledge, no burmese pythons have been proven to be longer than around 19ft. Whenever you hear people talk about 20ft burms, its generally just someones exaggerated guess. I will say that Baby was the most freakishly girthy snake ive ever seen. Medusa the retic was longer, but Baby was all girth. Literally twice as thick as she should have been at her length.

@@JzsReptiles where was a 25ft burm found? Im having trouble finding any info on that animal.

Hmm…iconic as in classic or most recognizable or iconic, most striking?

@@JzsReptiles however you take it!

@@AustinTaOnRU-vid noted!

Thank you!

You’re putting your kids life against risk with any animal big enough to hurt them💀 if you’re that worried get a fish.

@@al3x20_54 So your logic is, if something is likely to kill your kid really quick if it attacks then it's OK to get that animal for your kid. See how you are? You're nuts! 🤪🤣

No. I was a chef for 17 years. You can’t even see where the alligator got me

there's a few videos from Malaysia of absolutely enormous retics. there has to be 30 foot animals in uninhabited places. probably some big African rock pythons in the congo too

@@Rebelconformist82 to be honest....there are probably reticulated pythons...burmese....African rocks....Anacondas that are probably even close to the 40 foot mark....not exaggerating....they are probably out there it's just that people don't see them because they are well camouflaged and they never search every square feet of the places they live in

Medusa is probably 26 or 27 feet these days. She was 25ft 2 inches back when she was 350lbs. She was 450lbs at last weigh in, but hasnt been remeasured.

@@imwaytogoodlookingtobeyour1188 I'm sorry, but there's absolutely no way thats true. I keep all of those species except for the green anaconda. Why would a snake get twice as long as the longest example of its species thats ever been recorded? Only a handful of green anaconda have ever reached 20ft, same for afrocks and burms. Thats basically like saying there are probably 18ft tall people out there somewhere just because there was a (basically) 9ft tall person (robert wadlow) 100 years ago. Retics are much much longer than burms, afrocks, or green anaconda though. They could MAYBE reach 30ft, but definitely not 40. Also, when you double a snakes length, the weight goes up exponentially. I have a 10ft reticulated python that weighs 20lbs. Thats a very typical weight for a 10ft retic. A 20ft retic weighs closer to 150- 200lbs. I dont think you realize how big 40ft actually is. Or how heavy a snake that size would be. That would be so many times heavier than any living snake. Itd be over 1000lbs even if it was a slender bodied snake like a reticulated python.

@Alex Crowder I have some of the world's largest species also...I have a mainland phantom reticulated python....and yes it's true...one was caught and was 26 feet and died like a week after being captured.....so I'm pretty sure there can be thirty foot ones out there....
