This little girl shed out so I figured I'd get some decent pics of her up. Greg over at the retic ranch produced this beautiful animal, thanks again!

I want to get this little girl on rat pups....but this is what a hopper mouse does to her. Guess I gotta put it off!

They are going to be HOT looking as they mature. In my experiences with retics they are not at all tough to get onto rats. I also believe that snake could eat a rat pup as long as your temps are proper for digestion. I would see no need to stress the snake by doing so and all together avoid a regurge.

She most certainty could eat one of this I am certain, even at her small size. There is just no reason to do so till she gets bigger. If it is about eating rats instead of mice, she could chow down rat pinks effortlessly.

I think they will be SPECTACULAR in regards to coloration as they mature. Better then Albinos IMO anyways.

What you have there isn't "flooding" the market place that is for certain!!!!

NICE!!!

She probably could but as you stated it would be smart not to. I'm going to give her a bit longer before I do the switch. I have thought of going to rat pinks...not sure yet. She's beautiful and I've seen some amazing adults! Can't wait to see what she grows up to be! I'm picking up another pair from Greg next year as well!
