No it's not photoshopped. The snake's name is Baby, and I believe it's somewhere in the Chicago area. There's a bit of controversy regarding her on alot of the forums. This guys husbandry is a bit suspect from reading an article on him on the dreaded Melissa Kaplin's website.

Why is that snake's face so close to the children? HELLO?!?! People never cease to amaze me. When my 'measley' 14 foot burm is near children his head is firmly secured by me and never goes near them... that snake looks like it could eat them!!

I also think there should be more grown people over there where the snake is being presented, to control it, JUST IN CASE.

I believe the errors are found in the section where the author mentions that he houses Anacondas, Burms and I can't remember what else together. As I recall I think it mentions that he got nailed by her too. Just read alittle more closely.

That Louis Daddano is the same guy that almost got constricted by his Retic awhile back. There was some special on Animal Planet that I watched and taped. He works at (owns) Serpent Safari. I think there's one in Chicago and one in Wisconsin Dells.

According to the show, he almost died because he didn't secure the Retic before changing a light bulb in it's cage.
