Fantastic ?
For-sure?
Fine?


We'd need to know what it was to make an accurate guess, but I reckon it was the word 'Fantastic' just before the word 'Idea'.

Depends on whether you want a green or a yellow, apparently greens are pretty docile and they do grow slowly...

The dream would be to have a Green but unfortunately It would be impossible for me to house and look after a 30ft snake :( So yellow it is :D

I'd ask around on the Dark Side before ruling it out completely, I think I read that females average about 16ft. I'm not 100%, but I'm sure some of the guys who keep them could confirm whether this is true.

Even a 16ft female would be a large 400lb snake with 10" girth :D Although I suppose males are supposed to average at 10ft which isnt that bad!! But thats just averages I could still end up with a 20ft male??? Atleast male yellows average at 6-8ft (here we go with averages again) and i dont think the males get much bigger than 10-12ft max??? Ill take a look on darkside though, worth a look hey :D

You never know, you may find that you could get a green. I think the yellows are nicer looking, but apparently they're hell-spawn temperament-wise.
