I have never actually delt with a sul, but I plan to. I had three Afrocks, now only 1 and they are great!!! One needed some easy taming, but the others were nice from the start. I love Afrocks and I believe wether an Afrock or a retic, they can all be tame with proper handling. Good luck!

Hello there Darrylv, it's always nice to hear from you. Well, BMX said it all, if you have a baby one and work from there, you should have no reason to be alarmed. My afrocks never gave me much trouble and i currently keep one that is as tame as any burm. I've had many different retic localities and have yet to see one more agressive than any other. Sure, they all hiss a bit in the beginning and can give you a love bite or two but then all settle down. since many suls are wc people think they are evil but they are just defensive.
