New SD Retic
Today I got a new SD retic - he is 75 % Kalatoa, 12.5% Jampea, possible het(66%) for purple albino & anery. I got him from Garrett Hartle.

He is about 2.5 months old, and weighs about 107 grams.

Re: New SD Retic
He is beautiful. I'd love to have a dwarf or SD someday down the road. Congrats!

Congrats, Stay in tune with that one. Retics are vastly different from every other species.
They get big fast no matter what percentage of SD/Dwarf they are.
Very pretty animal you have there!

Way cool, congratulations and thanks for sharing. Retics are so beautiful.

That I am very aware of - as this makes my 5th retic. They are often very alert, curious species - always on the move.

I guess it all depends on your definition of big, and fast. While pure dwarfs may still get to 12-16 feet long. Generally the high percentage(75+%) SD won't get much larger than a pure Super dwarf (6-9 feet), maybe 10-12 feet for heavily fed females.
In his case - it also helps that his parents and grandparents where all in the 6-9 foot range.

Congrats! This is one of our babies, we do not really know the size of the grandparents, just fyi. Your lil one is such a cutie!

Congrats on number 5, I had no idea.

What I meant by "get big fast" is they are a species of rapid growth. SD Dwarf or mainland. They certainly grow to their potential faster than a lot of other species.
I am unclear on who produced the snake. Was it bred/produced by Garret, or was it produced by April and sold through Garret? I saw April's comment which is why I'm curious.
Beautiful none the less.

He was bred/produced by Garrett Hartle. As Garrett has bred this guy's parents together several times over the last couple of years. While neither the mommy or daddy of this guy are Anery or Purple Albino - they have produced Purple Snows.
So I believe that April is very much mistaken. Unless she possible sold a parent or grandparent to Garrett a few years ago.
-
we sold babies to Garrett for him to resale that are those exact % from our DH SD snows, but what do I know, right.
Anyways, it's a very pretty baby
-
How would I contact Garret. I need to find out the cost for the highest % SD I can find. I'd like an albino, or a tiger. I want to fit him/her in a V180
