The thing stopping me getting a retic is mainly the size as im not really in secure/permenant housing, moving with the burm an afrock wont be too much of a problem but moving with a potentially 15ft+ snake an viv could be a problem.
When i do get one i want one of the big locals or a golden child.
Also to complete the set of big pythons i would also need to get a scrub python, planning to get a female afrock at some point aswell |

Yes it makes you jump a bit although i think its only twice hes gone for me an both times he was aiming for my face the other time he nearly had me was a mental feeding responce where he missed the rat an shot over my hand by about 1/2".
I now drop feed him and the burm to reduce the risk of a feeding responce bite
I love hypo burms there another on the to get list |

i wasn't really a fan of retic's until my friend had one come into his rescue center it was 12ft when it came in an not exactly friendly, took 3 of us to hold him while removing an eye cap an 2 of us struggled to unwrap him from my mate's it's arm one seriously strong snake.
fluffy is now around 14ft an very docile but can be hard work holding him as is always on the move.
think it was meeting fluffy that inspired richard to get his retic.
im no longer a fan of snakebytes due to the discusting way they keep satan the big burm |
