I had a 6'+ Burmese Python in 1980 but it was a pussy cat, had to get rid of it, my wife was afraid of it, it'd climb out of its 75 gal. tank pushing the lid off, get under the couch and tickle her foot with its tongue every once in awhile freaking her out and she said she was worried it'd eat our 2 yr old, so I sold her to a friendSome guys are fearless, but some guys got balls of steel. When it comes to handling venomous snakes, I have cotton balls.
