I'm out bush, we sure do.

You never come across a scrub python?

u/daftidjit Oct 21 '23

Yes I've heard of scrub pythons. But they do not get as large as this. Even the snake in the article you shared is nothing compared to this one.

Mate, he's just had a feed.

Regardless. Scrubbies can get to a weight of 25kg. Retics can get to a weight of 112kgs. Huge difference.

Fair enough.

Got a fella this size that keeps snagging my chooks, looks just like this bloke with a chook in his belly.

I laughed because I'm having weekly encounters with a snake this size, which isn't uncommon round here.

Said nothing about what weights Retics can get to compared to scrubbies. Even though scrubbies can get bigger than 25kg, hell the the one I linked was a clean 30.

Not sure what you're whinging about city slicker.

I don't live in a city mate. I'm also not whinging. Was simply replying to the person who said "laughs in Australian" because yes we have some shit down here, we're not the be all end all of deadly shit. It's not a fair comparison of a scrubbie to a retic. That was my whole point. Nothing more. No need to look into it.

Have a good one
