Yes.
The (Asiatic) Reticulated Python (Python reticulatus) is a member of the Pythonidae family and has and average length of 15 ft. (4.57 m) to 25 ft. (7.62 m) however, it is possible for some to grow near 30 ft. (9.14 m) with a weight of 300lbs. (136.08 kg.), the largest was measured at 33 ft. (10.05 m).

(10.05 m), they can be located in Southeast Asia and can be found in the various Tropical Rainforest's which covers over 1.9 million sq. km (1.180,605 sq. mi.), a member of the Boa family the female can have as many as 100 eggs at a time (Average is 60 eggs)and the hatchlings are at least 2 ft. (61 cm) in length, life span of the python is 25 to 30 years. Dietconsists 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.

Subphylum: Vertebrata
Class: Reptilia
Order: Squamata
Suborder: Serpentes
Family: Boidae
Subfamily: Boinae

The anaconda is biggest as far as girth (largest being measured at 44 inches or 1,1176 m) is the Green Anaconda, on average anacondas are more then 20 ft (6.09 m) long with and average weight of 300+ pounds (136.08+ kg) many reaching lengths of 29ft ( 8.83 m) or more, with a weight of over 550 lbs ( 249.48 kg), in terms of length then and only then will the Reticulated Python exceed the anaconda,the longest python was measured at 33 ft ( 10.05 m) but even this python can't match the total mass of the anaconda.
Anacondas are members of the Boidae family of reptiles and spend most of their time in rivers and swamps of the Amazon Rainforest in South America which makes them excellent swimmers and are capable of holding their breath for around 15 minutes, female anacondas are generally 3 to 4 times larger then the males and bear their young live and are called "Neonates", the number of young varies, some have produced 100 babies, but the average is between 20 to 40 babies which are about 24 inches (0.6 m) long, they stay with the mother for about and hour then leave to be on their own. Diet consist of (depending on the size of the anaconda, the larger the snake the larger the prey) large/small rodents like capybaras, also pigs, caiman, jaguars, deer, dogs, birds even fish and is acquired by ambushing with a quick strike, 100 rear-facing sharp teethhold the prey while suffocating it with constriction, (the anaconda is so powerful it generally crushes it's prey) then swallowing it whole and by using it's muscles in a rhythmic fashion it works the food toward its digestive area, the digestion of the anaconda is very slow thereby allowing it to survive without food for well over a year.
Anacondas have around a 10 to 12 year year life span in the wild, in captivity some have reached 20 + years, the biggest threat to it is man and loss of their habitat.
No. It can refer to a kind of moth, or a mountain in Argentina. This term may be confused with Anaconda, which is a variety of snake found in South America that is a member of the boa family.Anacondas and other boas are sometimes confused with pythons, which can be found in Africa, Asia, and Australia.
pythons live in states including California and Florida
No, but there is now a large population of pythons and African Rock pythons in the Keys. Thousands of pythons are now on the loose. People buy them and then let them loose so now they are breeding. NatGeo had a good program on this.

Very Deadly
The main difference is - Rattlesnakes are venomous, while Boa constrictors are (as the name suggests) constrictors.
constrictors.
Burmese Pythons, like all Pythons, hatch from eggs. Boas do not lay eggs
pythons and boas is what i can think of right now
Pythons lay eggs, boas give live birth. They differ in a lot of other ways as well, including size (pythons are generally bigger), scale pattern and facial features. Pythons sense heat through "pits" along the side of their nose, while boas have heat sensory scales. To name a few.
well probably not they might but sometimes they wont but it is up to them you know
The spurs on pythons are called Pelvic Spurs. They are attached to what is left of the femur and pelvic girdle in Boas and Pythons. The males use them to tickle the females during courtship.
Pythons, some Boas and PitViper. Rattle also have a variation.
It depends on what you call large. Male ball pythons average 3-5 feet, females 5-6. Male Hogg Island boas, which are a dwarf locality of the boa constrictor imperator, are usually 3-4 ft and females are 4-5. There many types of small boas and pythons, those are just a few.

Pythons, some boas (including the anaconda) and the king cobra.
