I was wondering if there's any reason my retic has grown so slow compared to other I have seen I got him on 6-17-07 and he was about 3' and right now he's about 10' and if i feed him a 2lb rabbit it makes a huge bulge in him still. I got him from a local store that said they got him from Prehistoric Pets, but whats to really believe. Is it possible he has some dwarf in him? or is there something else? the first year and a half I had him I fed 1 rodent that would leave a noticable but not huge bulge in him every week and now i feed him every 10-14 days 1-2 XXL rats.

Here's a Pic when I first got him





and here's one now with my friend that just went into the Air Force





thanks

Zack
