but he said smaller ones were often worth more because owners liked to watch them grow
| Seems to be a fair bit of false information in this article, seeing as larger snakes are worth more for their ability to reproduce. |

They are beautiful and its a shame they are a pest and culled if taken by authorities. I wish they never came to australia, as now there either unlicenced or illegal or being destroyed. I think its sad. |

It could sell for up to $1000 on the black market but he said smaller ones were often worth more because owners liked to watch them grow.
| Methinks either the DSE spokesperson is not fully versed in the reptile trade, or the journo is using some license in his reporting
LOL!
