Murray is a Yellow Anaconda. We got him in Dec 2002 at 64" long. He'll grow to about 10 feet when he's an adult. Green Anacondas are the ones you may have heard about which can grow to 18 feet (or with a little Hollywood CGI, 40 feet!), so we're not quite as crazy as you might think for getting Murray.
He's a very shy snake, and loves to hide under things (or inside things) whenever possible. In that respect, he seems to have a similar temperament to Smedley.
