- Let's take a look at the growth rate of some burmese pythons, and how I feel they should be raised.
NO- the bins are not their enclosure. I pulled them and stacked them to provide easy access for the video.

Refreshing to see non obese Burms... Good looking animals
Thanks man!
@THE DARK KNIGHT'S REPUBLICAN indeed.. I've seen 1 yr old 6 foot Burms.. as you know Burms have relatively endless bellies and will gorge themselves and most (improperly educated) think they are doing them harm by limiting them
Jason's Exotic Reptiles I’m not judging how you care for your animals with this question but I’m curious. Is it suitable to keep snakes in bins like that ? Do they have enough space in there ?
That's correct. But obese isn't the same thing as having the natural fat reserves nature intended. I see many people make the mistake of judging every animal species by *human* standards. That's just wrong. If you kept a polar bear as a pet and you told me you were trying to get him unfat and muscular, i would say you were torturing and killing the poor thing, because they ARE supposed to be fat!!! Each species has their own normal fat level, and human standards aren't the regulating norm by any long shot. Burms are, in fact, supposed to fatten up a bit more than most other big pythons. With my 20 year experience i can tell where that limit falls, and that's where i try to keep them at. But i'll tell you: it's not exactly at Rocky Balboa lean. *THAT* is a mistake (especially in a female breeder).
@@TheJoker083 it's somewhat reasonable as temporary homes when they're not that big but definitely should switch to a big enclosure when being sold. Breeders very often tend to these racking systems for space reasons.
It’s nice to see breeders who don’t power feed their animals. I learned a lot from this video so thank you for making it!
Thank you! And awesome to hear! Thank you for taking the time to watch!
Who give him the authoriry to put the snakes in the cages you dont own and control gods creatures
@@wayneallen3704 god made certain creatures more powerful and intelligent for a reason its lifes natural cycle that god planned out the powerful get to rule
Wayne Allen Do you eat meat ?
Wayne Allen they aren’t gods creatures. They’re mother Earths. Stop giving credit to some make believe thing over actual psychical PROOF
Thank you so much for this! I've got a Burm at home and I've been searching for information but most videos only show retics and titans. My boy is about 2.5 years and he's 7 feet. He's just the sweetest and I love him dearly! He's really curious and active and wants to spend a lot of time roaming the apartment. And he loves to climb! So that guy is all muscles! I interact with him every day (except when he's in shed - then he's a grumpy one!) so he's really calm and tame and he rarely hisses anymore. He's never bitten or even struck at anyone. I feed him moderately because I don't want him to grow to quickly. I was a bit afraid that that maybe wasn't right so I'm really glad I watched this video!
You totally changed my mindset of Burmeses. I honestly thought they got huge, I'll definitely be looking into one instead of a dwarf retic.
HOLMAN burms are prob the best “big” snake to keep.
I’ve had a few 50% Dwarf Burms before and they’re just as gorgeous, and still get around 8-9 feet. One of the most gentle snakes I’ve owned.
I've owned a lot of snakes, but my absolute favourite was my female Burm. They make wonderful pets if you have the means to care for them well
@@Infernalapathy I'm sure I've got the means to take of a snake my friend.
@@Ainttheone84 I wasnt implying you didn't, I just mentioned that because big snakes are obviously more challenging to keep than, say a Corn snake or Ball Python, the smaller snakes that are typically recommended as great pets.
They look so much better when they are fed like this
I agree! Thank you!
@@JasonsExoticReptiles more burm video's please
Very highly appreciate this video. I think this might be the first video with visual evidence as to how they grow. Found it impossible to find anything ethier in TH-cam or online on age and growth rates. Thanks mate
See man I already got the one giant snake i had ever planned on owning and here you are got me pricing Burmese now lol
For real. I have a retic and the burm community seems like they have more fun lol
Hey Jason .
Please do another burmese python care and growth for 2021 . Will be great to see some of your burms .
I am now looking for a Burmese because of this video. Thank you for the information!!!!!
I love you're videos. Glad I found you. One of my new favorites. Keep em coming
Awesome video and beautiful snakes. I like the message you're putting out there about the negative effects of power-feeding. Nice work!
Great video, keep it up. I like the way you explain burm growth rates.
Awesome bro! I just subbed you. Thank you for your awesome videos! I’m loving this channel already!
A video that was well needed. Too many fat snakes out there. More burm vids :)
Thank you!
@Ernest Davis lol those are the containers I put them in for the video.
Yes! There are so many retics with the girth of a burm or more. I get yelled at by the community for just asking. Burms are girthy but not as much as these many obese ones out there.
Just got a baby Burmese. 4 month old female granite who’s already tame. A total sweetheart. Thank you for this.
I thought it was click bait, awesome content, subscribed
Love love love love this video. I love burms and I would have to say this one of the best videos I have seen to date in relation to burms. Kudos to you and your amazing animals.
Thank you!
Jason's Exotic Reptiles now I want another burm!!!! 😩😩😩
Awesome video dude!! The beginning helped me alot
Awesome video mate, great information 👍
Hi Jason, I watch all your vids, i rarely comment, just wanted to say thanks for making video's, i always learn so much!
Thanks for watching!! Always appreciated. Let me know if there is anything you would like to see in future videos!
Thank you for showing the proper way to care foe these wonderful animals. We need more sound advice to battle Barzyck and Jay. Keep it up!
Thank for watching. Happy to hear you like them. I'm working on a few more just been super busy!
So I'm just now getting back into the reptile hobby from when I was a kid but if I may ask what's all this controversy with Brian barczyk and jay brewer I've seen their videos and they seem to know what they're talking about?
@@BrianSmith-jx7td don't know brewer but, barczyk has tons of videos of him 1) misinforming people in an attempt to sell them stuff (looking at his cheap leapord gecko vid), 2) stressing animals for drama, 3) poor practices like no quarantine for new reptiles.
absolut agree! overfeeding is a big problem in my opinion.
Thank you. Yes, I think it's become noticed with boas, but people look over burms and just take for face value that they should be heavy bodied snakes.
Overfeeding is often referred to as power feeding it's a common practice in the breeding community I for one don't agree with it but some snakes benefit from it especially in female's it helps them with their egg laying
Chris S Nobody said u shouldn’t feed breeding females properly. But a fatty liver disease for example is a common issue with obese snakes.
Awesome video! Thanks, I have been trying to find this information on Burms for a while now. Very helpful!
Thank you!
Awesome video bro 👌🏼👍🏼
Thanks for all the good information
Great video bro!!! Very educational and helpful.
Great video man really enjoying them!
Great video man. Watched a few others really enjoyed them
Love the vids Jason excellent content love your burms can’t wait to watch more keep em coming 👌🏻.
Thank you!
Got my Burmese a week ago, had anxiety after watching some stupid documentary about them in the Everglades. You are awesome and have a lifetime subscriber. Thanks man
what stupid doc in the glades? I live in florida and we have to get rid of this stupid snakes, otherwise the glades are gone hope they got all killed.
This past week I ordered a male Burmese Python. He is my dream snake! I am enjoying any videos on these snakes. Obese snakes are not healthy and i will never over feed my snakes because I want them to be with me a long time. Love your videos.
How's he doing? I've always wanted a burm and would only consider a male because of the size difference haha
@@evanspiteri3576 He is a sweet boy and putting on some size now. I feed him once a week to every 10 days. He will not be a fat snake. I want him to be healthy. I do not put him around my neck.
I appreciate the hell out of you man love your content you helped me out with facing my fear of snakes I just purchased a ball python and I love this snake so calm and misunderstood cant wait to feed her thanks for all you do
Love Burms. They're getting a lot of bad press at the moment in the US due to the everglades problem, but they are beautiful snakes.
The press is what is bad. They are genociding pythons in florida and the fault is of people who released them outside. They're being called pests. That is animal cruelty and abuse. They could very well relocate them or something instead of exterminating them
One day humans will pay for their crimes against animals, if we continue doing that shit instead of respecting animals and Life. Animals have the right to live too
@@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess people didnt "release them outside".. Hurricane Andrew caused them to be freed from the Miami zoo
And they are killing the entire ecosystem in the Everglades, they need to kill them.
@@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess I can understand why they need to be killed, because they're disrupting the natural ecosystem and harming native wildlife. Snake Discovery does a great video explaining why they have to be destroyed and can't just be relocated.
That's not to say that I don't think it's sad, however. They didn't swim over to Florida from Asia on their own. They're in the Everglades because people put them there. Whether it was a breeding facility or released pets is irrelevant.
It's good to see videos like this anyway. Of all the snakes I've ever owned, my Burmese python was by far my favourite. They make wonderful pets providing you have the means to care for them correctly.
Do Burms like to climb?
Some of these snakes remind of the ones I saw at House of Reptiles. They seemed *very* curious.
Very educational video! Truthful video! I just subscribed. I love Burms and Boas!
Man I think they are so pretty and super cute as babies
I just can't commit to the space for anything bigger than say a common male boa
Breaks my heart but I have to admire from afar.
Great to see breeders not powerfeeding and doling out responsible advice
Thanks man. And yes, they are not for everyone. I had to downsize and get rid of my burms for a while because of space constraints.
I really appreciated the info, it let me know I’m taking care of my python in just the right way. I’d love it if you did a video about enclosures!
great video, right to the point and very informative. Love the video man, I'll take what I've learned here and use that to inspire the videos on my channel.
Thank man!
Very cool video!!
Thanks man!
loved the video thanks. we have a fair collection of pet snakes of various types but we had our first Burmese yesterday such a beautiful calm puppy dog tame snake. your a credit to the reptile hobby keep up the education. thanks.
Great video! Just subscribed 😎🤙🏾
Thank you for putting it in perspective as to the sizes that was great.
Thanks for watching!
Fairly new fan right here but really love your content man! Keep it up!
Thanks man! Let me know if there is anything specific you want to see.
Super great vid man. I love burms--even more than retics. They are my first love you could say.
Great video! Great looking snakes. So happy to see snakes that are in shape and not overfed.
Thank you for posting this! I am slow feeding my berm and this helps me know what to look for!
Excellent video, the myth about we "need" giant burm pythons is very common. More videos like this please!! Cheers from Mexico!!!
Thanks brother!
Very interesting video and loved all the different sized snakes
Awesome video. Thanks Jason!
Thanks for checking it out!
Extremely informative! Thanks, man! 👌
Thanks for watching!!
What a great, informative, easily digestible video! Stunning animals too!!
Thank you!
Good looking Burms man! Love seeing someone else showing off there Burms on here currently. 👊. Subbed and look forward to seeing more!
Thank you!
Ds Balls and Exotics I subbed you.
Take care and God loves you.
My 6 year old albino burm is 11 foot long, she eats 1 large rabbit every 3-4 weeks. Her vet says she is in perfect health, she is handled everyday, she comes out and crawls around our living room and my dogs just watch her, she ignores them, my grandkids regularly handle her and she loves the attention, my grandson named her lottie. She isn't hook trained, I dont even on a hook, she knows if we knock on her tank to wake her up she isnt getting fed, if we dont knock shes getting fed. My reticulated python is trained the same but she doesn't get let out to roam around, shes 3 and still a bit fidgety lol
Hi jason i love your video’s about burmese pythons.
Ive got my first about 2 weeks now and i love her.
I have boa’s for 6 years now and now im in to burmese phython.
I watch a lot of your video’s to learn about them.
Keep it going man love how you love youre snakes.
I hope mine will get as puppy dog as yours.
Greets from Holland
Great video thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Thank you for helping me convince my mom to let me get a male Burmese Python😂
That's awesome!
Just don't let me find it ;)
Thank for sharing. Stunning snakes. As a snake owner and viewer of your channel I must say, you put out very good informational videos. Keep up the good work. :)
Thank you!
Great vid brother
I always thought Burms were these massive thick and long snakes, never realized they could be an actual manageable size- at least the males! I’m too weak to handle a 100lb snake, but she’s gorgeous! Cheers
Dont get me wrong, they still get larger but I dont think as large as most people think.
Jason's Exotic Reptiles Yeah, but when I think large i think like 20+ feet. Even your big girl looked reasonable enough to house fairly easily with DIY enclosures
Your best video yet.
Great video Jason. You're the main reason why I got a Burmese to add to my collection in the first place. I'm glad I did, because my male Burmese is a puppy dog.
Thank you!
Very refreshing video putting health before size and bragging rights
I really appreciate this video! There aren’t enough videos on Burmese pythons. These are so beautiful 😍I would love to see more videos related to Burmese pythons 🙂 Thank you!
Thank you. I'll have to make a few more.
Dope video !!!
Great info and solid points.
Thank you
Im having my own burmese thanks for the tips newbie here 🐍lookin forward to have some gift one of your hatchlings sir
You sound just live my dad!!! Love the east coast accent 😂💕
Mainer here 👋
Haha we cant help it
very clear and informative video. keep up the goodwork... subscribed
Thank you! I appreciate the support! Trying my best to keep it real. Let me know if there is anything you want to see!
Jason's Exotic Reptiles would love to see a video on you ( if you don’t have one already)
How you got into the hobby, how you got into breeding blah etc
Cool video man!
keep going keep growing dude. good channel!
Thank you!
Awesome video as always and perfect timing. My 6 year old is hooked on snake life with 3 boas and has been talking about a burm.
Burms are great as long as you are respectful of them and what they are they can be fantastic.
Jason's Exotic Reptiles agreed 100% your videos are great and always informative. Certainly has taught me a lot and my animals thrive from what i have learned from your videos before i made my purchases.
Great job with the video Jason
Thank you!
Da You could say the same exact thing on my channel because we both have the same name.
Take care and God loves you.
awesome video
Great job! I slow grow as well, I have a 8ft male that will be 5 years old in 3 months. As small as mine is considered I've seen smaller ones that's are older than him. I'd love to see an update on all of your burms.
In a more current video he says he Hates slow growing. The snakes he showed are abnormally small
I wish everyone in the hobby had the same beleives than you conerning snake weight. Love it. Keep up the good work.
Please do more videos on growth rate and husbandry of burms. Great video!
This is very educational, made my fear about burmese that grow really large go away im now confident that i know it can only grow depnding if you overfeed. I know have a baby burm albino planning to make it lean not chonki snek
Keep up the hard work love the vids man !!!
Thanks Man!
Very professional and knowledgeable person like the way you explain things
Thank you!
A lot of respect for you after this video, got a new sub.
Thanks man! Apprecate the support!
Thanks for sharing man.. great video..
This is a very needed video
Thanks for sharing👌🏾😎👍🏾👍🏾❤️ the last 2 were absolutely stunning 😍 subscriber gained
Thank you! Let me know if you want to see other topics. This is a longer one that might need a remake
Cool channel never saw you before? I like the info and no Bs. Straight forward. I like it. Definitely subscribe button and bell on you stuff. Thanks.
Thank you!
I have been looking for a video about Burmese python, especially age and size reference. I am writing a novel where my MC has a male albino Burmese python for a pet. I didn't know much about the age or size so your video helped me visualise how the snake would look and act around its owner. Thanks for this and I've hit that subscribe button.
Sounds like a great novel! Thank you for the sub! Keep me posted on the book. I'd love to check it out when finished
Best video about Burms. This helps me out big time
Thank you!
Learned a lot as well very informative!!!
Thank you!
First video IV seen of yours I'm now a new sub
Awesome. Thanks for watching! Let me know if there is anything specific you want to see.
great video, I love burms. thanks Jason
Thanks for watching man!
You hit the nail on the head. I JUST picked up a big female burm from a guy who had her in a 100g tank. She hasn't been touched in over 3 years. He was feeding her a 3-5 lb rabbit every 2 weeks. SHE IS FAT! (Let me point out that I am not knocking her original owner. He is an extremely nice man, I just think he was in over his head a bit. She was his one and only snake) I have her in one of my 6x3x18's right now but have an 8x4x4 on order for her. She is an absolute unit. One of the most impressive animals I have ever seen, let alone had in my collection. She is on a diet now. Only being fed every 2 months and taken off food entirely for a few months during the winter. She will also be going out in the yard for exercise if i can manage to pull her out. She is SUPER vocal. Sounds like an air compressor. She is roughly 15-16 ft and I'd say pushing 200 lbs easily. So I have A LOT of work to do with her. But I couldn't be happier with her. She is an absolutely amazing animal.
Great video
Thank you!
excellent video! burm and ball python owners very often overfeed, I was happy when I bought my burm at an expo that they had one of their adults also and I was surprised to see a normal looking burm, and was by far the healthiest snake Ive bought from a breeder
You handle snakes like a boss haha Also I learned a lot of stuff from your videos man so please don’t stop! Great work! Peace and love bro 🤘🏽
Haha thanks man.
Great vid. My burmese is a 2013 baby an only pushing over 6 half foot in great condition
Fantastic info as always brotha
Thanks for following along as always hah!
Np brotha I luv to see a local guy doing big things in the reptile trade an you produce some amazing stuff an always give fantastic info an have yrs of first hand experience I hope to 1 day have the same success as yourself an u have ridiculous collection just spectacular stuff
Hopefully 1 day we can work together on something an maybe do a few vids together this yr at some point maybe we can do something together early spring when I may have some new born baby’s to show an I held back 5 from last season so I’ll have some cool baby’s to show off
Gr8 job jason thank you so much
I love your videos. I have owned burms and retics in the past. Right now I have female bci about 5 year's old. But you have got me wanting another burm really bad. Thanks for the videos.
Thanks man for watching!
More videos like this? Love it!
Very good videos, cool snakes
Thank you!
New subscriber here. Burmese pythons are awesome. The moment I first held one is one of my all time favorite moments.
Nicely done Jason. Berm is definitely on my bucket list. I love big snakes, but not reticulated size and berm is just perfect.
Thanks for the excellent info !!
Thanks man. Burms and retics are about the same excapt retics will get longer and burms will get heavier bodied.
I've always thought retics have more of an attitude then berms, is there any truth in that?
Finally someone who gets it! My year and a half old girl is right at the same size as yours! Your snakes look perfect man!!!
