This website claims to have Dwarf Burmese Pythons

Are there such things as dwarf burmese? And if so, how big do they grow?
I wouldn't mind owning one

I found a lot of information by google. Yes they exist and one site says
they don't grow more than 2 meters in length.

Just put Dwarf Burmese Pythons in google and see what comes up.

Snakes


Dwarf burmese would make a better first snake than a dwarf retic.

Full-size retics are known to be incredibly defensive and they defend
themselves by biting. I'm told by someone with experince of them that dwarf
retics don't defend themselves by biting, they defend themselves by pooing
on you and he added that he'd rather they bite him than poo on him because
getting pooed on is worse (it must really really stink, my royal python has
pissed on me in the past and it's quite smelly, so I'd imagine it's a lot
more potent with a larger python).

He also said that the dwarf retics grow up to 9ft long, dwarf burmese get
around 7ft long so they'd be easier to handle and they're also a lot more
docile than retics

It's a pity they're going for $8500/pair at the moment, otherwise I'd buy
one

I'm actually not worried about biting as others might be. I've had some
pretty nasty birds rip into me, my favorite amazon at the store I used to
work at was a 'here take it we don't want it' bird, abbandoned by its
owners. That was four years ago, and I still have scars. I came about this


The poo sounds nasty, though.

Damn, it's not the $8500 a pair that'll get you. It's the Lloyds
of London insuranced policy you'd have to carry on them, or the gun
you'd have to shoot yourself with if one of them died.

Beautiful snakes though.
