Yep, that will be the true test once Josephine is a big girl. Before I let my Mom purchase her (boy does that sound funny!), I made sure she understood how big Josephine would get and the size enclosure she would need, etc. etc. etc. Even though I'm the one that is providing the care and she will be kept in my home, I didn't want Mom to think she would stay little and easy to handle for long. It was basically a discussion of whether I was okay with having such a large constrictor in my home and providing care for it and was Mom still going to be willing to pet her little punkin' head when she's 12'+ long. Needless to say, all parties agreed. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] Mom has seen a full size burm before. My best friend & neighbor has a 12'+ female normal phase burm that I took Mom over to see some months back. So Mom knows what Josephine will look like size wise in just a few years. I go out to my Mom's every week or so and will be taking Josephine with me on most of those weekends - at least while she's a size I can still easily manage her. After that, Mom will have to come to Josephine. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
