    How big exactly
    How big exactly do dwarf retics get? if they dont get too big would this be a good step to start out with the really large snakes after moving up from boas?

    I want to get a retic but i dont think im ready for the regular retic adult size?

    so a dwarf male would probably be best for me correct?

    I do not own any giants so take my advice with a grain of salt. I am pretty sure that some of the "dwarf" line females can still make it to 15 feet. A male would most likely be shorter and smaller in girth So if you have experience with larger boas I don't see why a male dwarf reticulated python would be out of reach.

    There are many types of dwarf retics. The most common dwarf retic is the Jampea dwarf. Even so the largest one at the moment is some 15'+. Jampea retics are nice to look at and are VERY active. They're going to do what they want. There is no stopping a snake that size trying to do what it wants to do.

    Here are two buddies of mine with the largest Jampea retic that I know of. The smaller one is about 6' and the other is about 6' 6".
