    75% dwarf retic male size?
    Hey all, need a little help.
    I'm considering a retic, he is a genetic strip and from a reputable source. What type of size range would you think he would be?
    This is the original sellers webpage screen shot, currently he is with the guy that purchased him, I'm waiting on a reply on his actual size ATM at 2 yrs old.

    Not sure that the offspring from that pairing could be 75% dwarf. One parent would need to have been 100% if the other is 50%, and platinum is a mainland genetic trait, not from a dwarf locality. It also depends on what dwarf island these bloodlines are from, the size of the parents, etc as there is a decent bit of variation in dwarf locality sizes. Jampea is dwarf locale but there’s plenty of them that still reach 14’+

    Took Caesar my SD/D Male about 2 years to go from 2 feet to about 9 feet now. And he is manageable. He has always been mellow though and never taken a shot at me.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f53b18fa12.jpg

    Cheers pal, I've had some more contact, he is around 3.5ft and 2 years old.... Not aggressive although a little Viv defensive, guessing this is standard dwarf retic tho. I think I might get him:-)
