Python reticulatus, is a species of python found in Southeast Asia, Indonesia and the Indo-Australian Archipelago. Adults can grow to over 28 feet in length but normally grow to an average of 10-20 feet. They are the world's longest snakes and longest reptile, but are not the most heavily built. Like all pythons, they are non-venomous constrictors and normally not considered dangerous to humans. Although large specimens are powerful enough to kill an adult human, attacks are only occasionally reported. An excellent swimmer, python reticulatus has been reported far out at sea and has colonized many small islands within its range. The specific name is Latin meaning net-like, or reticulated, and is a reference to the complex color pattern.

Breeding Trends
https://forums.kingsnake.com/view.php?id=2114303,2114303
With the ban on imports it seems that we are quickly loosing the natural look of the reticulated python over the desire to produce odd looking snakes. Its almost impossible to find a yellow headed retic. To each his own, but most of these morph projects to me look silly. Am I alone?

Quick question, I recently purchased a female albino retic. I want her to grow fast and large but not fast enough to make her obese and decrease her longevity. Possibly breeding her in the future but for now she's the only snake I have and a family pet.
