Hi all... i have 5 other snakes.. all Boas.. i was wondering what is a good Retic that is great looking but doesnt get to a really giant size? I have seen some really great looking Yellow heads, but not sure if there are any Dwarfs out there... any and all assistance would be greatly appreciated

These stay TINY and I think they're awesome looking. Not really readily available currently but there should be an increase in numbers over the next few years. The girl pictured below is 9 months old and is around 550 grams.

I have had her for a couple of months now (she was several months old when I got her). She is tamer than a cornsnake, she never misses a meal, and is perfect in every way. The females are supposed to get 10 - 12', although there have been a couple that have been larger. The males are smaller. If that is the size you want, you will be really happy with them.

I don't have any experience with the super dwarfs, but they sound nice too. I think they are more expensive than the Jampeas.

Shauns Jamps are great...just wish they didn't always want to eat so damn much, lol...
