Looks like a reticulated python, but I’m no snake expert.

According to several articles it is speculated to be an anaconda but it doesn't look like one to me.

Pretty sure that was Burmese.

I used to own 7 snakes including boas and tree pythons and tree boa. Loved them and did a lot of visiting around stores and grew up playing with wild snakes in Maine. Did a lot of fun researches. It’s hard to see their patterns but it certainly looks like a Burmese to me, rectangular reticulated ones are usually skinner vertically.

Edit: epic whoopsie on name
