Hi guys, I have a 4 year old Cottonmouth wich is 5'3", and was wondering if anyone knows what the largest recorded specimen is?.. he is housed in an 8' enclosure with a huge water bowl and is unusually calm.. I would like to see if I could come close to the largest recorded specimen, or maybe even surpass it..
this large water mocassin was found near our outdoor bearded dragon enclosures, it was shot to protect the dragons, as it was trying to get into the enclosure! I don't like killing reptiles.... we drug it with a yellow hook and fed it to an alligator snapping turtle in the bayou behind my friends house.
