: Before you go asking for 10 footers, let's try 8, then 9.

: I have a male couperi that'll top 8 feet by next year maybe. Dino used to own a really big Texas Indigo but I'm pretty sure it was sub-9.

: I'm sure when somebody comes up with a 10 footer, it will be the belle of the ball.

: DT

: : Does anyone own a 10 foot plus indigo/cribo?

ok, now the floodgates are open! here's what i've heard. [read] i think this was in an old post but i remember reading that terry vandeventer and possibly bill love caught a 10'+ male yt cribo in the jungle one time. i also remember that terry remarked that it was a world class colubrid and that though he'd seen longer colubrids, he'd never seen one that long w/ that kind of weight before making it the largest colubrid he'd ever seen. said that it stunk up the place too when they finally nabbed it. and i believe that there are pictures of it as well. can you imagine running into such a monster?!? i remember thinking water snakes were really big and 'deadly' as a kid. lol.
