Popular Post insertmembernamehere Posted July 10, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2012 Found this fellow in the yard (the dog did, actually, I just did the rest). A little over six feet long. A real beauty. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brit1984 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Given my fear of snakes, I should stop opening these scary snake threads. Such a waste of underpants. Sent from iPhone; please forgive any typos or violations of forum rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samuijimmy Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 ah you picked it up... It actually looks pretty skinny from one or two I have seen.... the last one I saw, was a neighbour who's chickens were being eaten.... they wanted me to get the snake..... No thanks! Another I saw, literately flew out a bonfire and over a 4 foot high wall.....faster than a speeding bullet!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post samsiam Posted July 10, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2012 I caught one of them in Bkk years ago...we were headed to kanchanaburi the following weekend, so kept it and took it along and released it by the river. Good job.....most nutters kill them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

insertmembernamehere Posted July 10, 2012 Author Share Posted July 10, 2012 Awesome, your floor needs polishing BTW. Yes, my speedy landlord should be on that in a few years...more. Yes, I caught it and being right handed, took out my keys from my right-hand pocket with my left hand, and opened the back door, and manipulated the camera left-handed for the shots. This is the initial tug of war... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've given up asking or even considering asking for anything non major. I don't hassle the landlady, she doesn't hassle me and my rent has gone down not up over the last 3 years.

spindle Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Nice Photos Looks like a baby one. We have had three, two in the garden and one under our sink over the last 2 months. One of them was over 2.5 meters long. Beautiful markings. I think that they grow up to about 10 meters and lay over a 00 eggs. Probably explains the lack of cats and rats around here!

samsiam Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Don't think reticulated grow 10m.....thats 30 feet or so. Burmese pythons dont even grow that big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropicalevo Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) The bit that I do not understand, is why drag the poor thing out of it's natural habitat and take it into your house? I usually have to get them out of the house and put them back into the jungle. Mind you, the tockays sometimes sort them out first! Just checked my trusty snake book. Reticulated can grow up to 10 metres (reputedly) and the Burmese one up to 6 metres Edited July 11, 2012 by Tropicalevo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marstons Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Braver than me, the reticulated can be quite nasty from what i rememeber of the Late Steve Irwin documenteries. One myth he did put about is they fear humans and try at all costs to avoid, the snakes i get do not seem to beat a retreat at me appraching at all.
