i think a "wow" factor..

You can walk into any reptileshop, see corns, royals, but what if there was a nice STUNNING big retic, that would make you go "wow"..

a nice big burm, or maybe do eeding days,twice a month, " see the girl feed ".. i think big is always going to win, kids can see corns on the net, boas, royals etc etc, but how often can they get close to bigger species?..
id show the big boys off, then have a " how they are born " area, so they can see what babays grow to, and experience, understandthe growth of these bad boys, how they have to survive as young,small snake,being a threat, to then growing to kings / queens of the world.

Epic..
