So I finaly gave in...got my first retic

boachick85 Feb 26, 2006 12:03 AM

I've been debeating over whether or not i'm ready to add a retic to my collection for about a year now and I finaly caved today at the Hamburg show. I have a pretty good sized group of LARGE adult red bloods so i'm quite used to having big snakes, my biggest female red is 7ft long and about 50lbs (she's on a diet) so i'm not a newbie by any means but this is my first retic. And I LOVE him! He's cb early '05 and about 7-8ft long. He's also the tamest snake i own now but i'm used to blood tempers so anything is tame to me. lol. He really is good though, doesn't hiss, strike, anything. I know I just got him so there's a good chance that he'll turn out to be mean after a few days of settling in but thats okay, i don't mind I'm gonna snap some pics of him in the morning and post them. Anyway, sorry that was kinda long. Thanks for reading!!

I must have gotten to the show too late,I don't remember seeing any decent sized Retics?! There were a few small one's that I couldn't afford(Albinos),of course!!
Best of luck.
