    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hello, I have a 3-4ft female 100% het for albino. She is eating large rats every 3-4 weeks, and shedding healthy. I am asking 120 shipped/obo. I have pictures, just email me.


-matt
 
hello i would defanitly buy if i had the money but i'm new to having snakes and i was wondering if you could tell me what the 100% het means
 
burm

Hello, Im glad you have an interest in snakes,lol. I am sorry you dont have the money, she is worth every penny. As for the 100% het for albino, I emailed a freind and asked him, but i am pretty sure its possible albino. meaning it has the genes to produce albinos, Id say thats waht it means. she does have high goldish almost yellowish scales in her patterns.
 
burm

i really love burms so if you still have it in a month or two i would be more than happy to buy her. have you ever thought of breeding her.
 
burm

yah, I want to, but right now space is limited. If I can sell her, maybe later on I can set up a more devoted breeding project. Right now I am in the middle of moving. I guess Ill see how it goes,lol.
 
Don't mean to intrude but,

Hector, do you know how big burmese pythons get? Especially females? They can grow 7-9 feet in their first year of life. They are not beginner snakes. IT can cost $1000 a year to feed these animals. A breeder I know feeds his adult female burmese 12 jumbo rabbits, a month! If you can barely afford the snake itself, there is no way you are going to be able to pay for its 8 foot long cage or 10+ jumbo rabbits. They defficate like horses. Not beginner snakes. You would need its adult cage by the time it is one year old. If it is fed properly, and you want to feed it properly. Or else you'll have a burmese python that is always hungry. And burmese pythons are known man killers, mainly kids.
 
yea i kind a knew but not that much
im thinking of sticking with ball pythons thanks for the info
 
So those who are not aware, 100% means the snakes has the albino gene. This happens when the parent's were one albino and one normal. The babies all come out normal looking, but when bred to each other, half the clutch will be albino, the other half will be normal. The normal half of the clutch may have the gene, they may not, these are considered "possible hets".

As far as burms killing people, there are a lot of stories, and some of them are true. Though do not be scared off from these snakes, they are awesome animals and they are not all man killers. Many injuries and the FEW deaths that have occurred are from the owner's mistakes. The most dangerous time to be around these animals is during feeding, though that goes for any snake. Burms do eat a lot, though when full grown, many owners only feed them once a month. I know of some that buy pigs from butchers to feed to their burms. Which would cost less then 12 jumbo rabbits a month.

Remember the simple rule of large boids, one person for every six feet of a tame snake. One person for every four feet of an aggressive snake. Continue learning about them, respect them for their size and power. Hector, you are young and have a lot of time to learn, prepare, and decide if a Burmese python is a snake you are ready to care for.
 
NOt to mention the burm that killed that alligator. The worlds strongest man wouldn't even be able to take on a gator. Or a burm.

Burmese are massive animals that deserve to be respected.
 
Let's also not forget about the alligator that killed the burm the previous year.

That alligator was 6 feet, the burm was 13 feet. Both of those sizes can be handled by one person with experience, though strongly not recommended. There are many alligator wrestlers that handle alligators much larger than six feet. Two people can easily handle a 13 foot burm.
