Congratulations on your new retic. Of course I am partial to the purple's LOL
If I may offer some advice. I have seen, heard and read about people who "power" feed their retics in order to get them big as quickly as possible. I am really against this. I just feel that while the animal has the potential for fast growth, mentally they dont keep up with their size. I don't think there is anything worse than a 15' snake with the mentality of a 4' snake.
Just my opinion on the matter. And it will save on the food bill LOL.
