An English dad claims his pet Burmese python has grown into the world’s biggest, but is still welcome to live in his home — alongside his much smaller children.

一位英国父亲声称，他的宠物缅甸蟒蛇已经长成世界上最大的蟒蛇，但仍然欢迎他和小得多的孩子们一起住在家里。

Marcus Hobbs, 31, bought Hexxie from a pet shop eight years ago when the reptile was just 8 inches long.

The constrictor is now over 18 feet, Hobbs claims.

31岁的马库斯霍布斯(Marcus Hobbs)八年前从一家宠物店买了这只只有8英寸长的爬行动物Hexxie。

霍布斯说，这条巨蟒现在已经超过了18英尺。

I knew she would be big but she has shocked everybody by how much she has grown,” Hobbs, an IT worker from Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, told South West News Service.

来自格洛斯特郡图克斯伯里的IT工作者霍布斯在接受西南新闻社采访时说:我知道她会变大，但她的成长让所有人都震惊了。

”The potentially lethal reptile, who is still growing, chows down on rabbits, stillborn deer, calves, goats and pigs — and poops enough to fill a large trash bag once a month, according to the news agency.

据新华社报道，这种仍在生长的爬行动物可能会致命，它会吃掉兔子、死鹿、小牛、山羊和猪，一个月拉一次便能装满一个大垃圾袋。

Experts say the biggest Burmese python was 18 feet, 8 inches long, but Hobbs claims Hexxie is even bigger.

专家们说缅甸最大的蟒蛇长18英尺，长8英寸，但霍布斯声称Hyxy甚至更大。

I am very passionate about snakes and I try to help people understand them,” Hobbs said, adding, I think people are so scared of them because they think they are going to kill them, but if people come around, I can talk to them all day long about snakes to reassure them.

”霍布斯说：我非常热爱蛇和我试图帮助人们理解他们，我认为人们之所以害怕蛇，是因为他们认为蛇徽杀死自己，但如果有人过来，我可以整天和他们谈论蛇，让他们放心。

”Hexxie lives in the three-bedroom home with his partner, Amy, 31, their two young sons, a smaller snake named Monty and Shiloh, the family Husky.

Hyxy和他的伴侣，31岁的艾米，还有他们的两个年幼的儿子，一条名叫蒙蒂的小蛇和希洛的哈巴狗一起住在这个有三间卧室的房子里。

Hobbs says he would not bring Hexxie, who lives in the living room, out when his sons, ages 1 and 4, are around.

霍布斯说，他不会把住在客厅里的Hexxie带到他1岁和4岁的儿子身边。

I would only do it while they were in bed or another room,” he said.

I don’t think she’d be dangerous towards them, but you have to use your common sense and I’m a responsible pet owner.

”他说：我只会在他们躺在床上或其他房间的时候做。

”。

我不认为Hyxy会对他们有危险，但你必须要有常识，我是一个负责任的宠物主人。

”He said the closest Hexxie has ever come to attacking him was when he had to apply iodine to a skin infection.

当他不得不给皮肤感染的蟒蛇涂碘酒时，Hyxy差点儿攻击了他。
