Every Burmese Python I've bred - has grown to around 10 feet in two years.
The Key Largo Woodrat is an an endangered species. The Burmese Python is an invasive species, and is harming many native and endangered species in the Everglades. A Burmese Python can even eat an alligator - it will eat anything, no matter what size. This is why the Key Largo Woodrat is threatened by the Burmese Pythons.
From an outsiders point of view - I'd say no. The 'problems' caused by the apparent explosion in the population of Burmese Pythons is entirely the fault of human carelessness and indifference - there are always alternatives to just releasing an alien species the size of a Burmese python into the wild of a foreign country, rather than re-home it !It just goes to prove that people should research animals properly before they take on the responsibility !
Burmese pythons get the Range of 12-16 foot Usually,Females TEND to be bigger than males,Female Burmese Pythons usually get around 14-16 foot.they mature around 4-6 years of age,And can breed at 3 years of age.In the wild it usually takes around 7-10 years to get this Size,Breeders today "Powerfeed" Meaning feeding more food than they should makes your snake bigger faster,Male Burmese pythons get around 10-12 foot Sometimes 14 feet. They grow slower,But can get just as big as females if feed right. Sources:Me I breed Burmese Pythons and Other Serpents Ask anytime for help or Pictures.
It depends on the age, size scars (if any), Most babies sell for $75. As they get older and the color comes out you can ask more money.
Anything that is under about 200 pounds."For their size, Burmese pythons are among the heaviest of the giant snakes with 17-18 foot animals achieving weights of over 200 lbs."http://whozoo.org/students/stamoo/burminfo1.htm
Depends on the size of the python - an adult can eat something as large as a small goat !Diet consists of small mammals and birds, the larger the python the larger the prey which include pigs, dogs, cats and primates, etc., the python ambushes it's prey, holds it with it's teeth and suffocates the victim with constriction rather then crushing it, after swallowing the prey whole digestion takes many days to several weeks depending on the size of the prey.
Although the retic. is the "longest" snake in the world, it does not mean that it doesn't have any competitors. Other snakes, such as Burmese, Indian python and the amethystine python are very similar in terms of their hunting methods and prey. I wouldn't want to run into any of these animals "WILD" and at full size......they would present a big problem!!

Obviously this depends on the size of the human. But if we're talking about an average adult male and an average adult snake... I'd say 3-4 times the height/length of a human.
The Ceylonese Python, also known as the Sri Lanka python, is a part of the Molarus subspecies, closely related to the Burmese python. This snake originates from the island of Sri Lanka, formerly known as Ceylon. This snake, like other large pythons can be started on small mammals/birds and once it gets to a larger size, it can be fed rabbits, chickens and pigs.
