I would love to know how old you are. Your spelling and sentence structure is not good. You seem young to me. I would guess 16 or under.

In the last few weeks you have posted about burms, BRBs, lace monitors, red tegus, sand monitors, and nile monitors.

Now you say you have been doing research on anacondas for 6 months?

I don't buy it...something smells like fish.

I think you need to commit to one species, and follow through. You keep saying "my buddy had one, and it was great" and that's good, first hand experience is good. But you should not stop there. While ONE person had an easy time with a species, that in no way means that you will. In all honesty, with aggressive and hard to handle animals, it was probably just a fluke, or it took them forever.

Animals, especially reptiles do not just change their natures. One nice anaconda does not mean the entire species are sweet, when they are not known to be that way.

And anything EIGHT feet is not small. And not cheap to feed. Something that size would need several rabbits in a sitting, and pigs are not advised because they are often riddled with bacteria from bad harvesting practices. One bad pig can kill your big expensive snake. Buying 30+ lbs of frozen rabbits is gonna break the bank if you are not prepared. And if you were to buy LIVE rabbits, I can't imagine what the cost would be.

For 6mos worth of research, you seem to be lacking several basic facts.
