Help me name my new sd retic boy:-)

Haha, I kinda want him to keep.some retic attitude, I feel I'm ready for an ahole snake if it's the case LMAO.
It's odd how you can feel ready and even get excited that he may be a bit more unpredictable:-)
The missus voted Hector
The son (4.5yrs) votes chewy

Ummmm…. Careful what you ask for. They can do some serous damage and a bite can land you in the hospital getting stiches if not kill you. If you like can name he Demon with your hopes he is difficult.

I am happy mine are easy going and even my male is mostly easy going except food and if he has a tooth ache. Geez on feeding day and for several hours after. And that is at 8 months old. You can ask others here about Male breeding season issues. One of our experienced keepers had to rehome his because of it. Is like an angry chainsaw that wants to fight you. Hope for peaceful happy animal! If you want something challenging get a tree boa. Cant kill you but will keep you on your toes.

I did look at tree boas to be honest, and carpondos and coastal carpets.
I don't want a maniac tbf just something to keep it fun, even ATM I won't just reach in and grab him like I do my boas, tap training is underway... He hasn't struck yet other than in the store at the box, he just looks ready too and wow is he fast on the turn Bob and weave around the hook haha.
Retics are just amazing, the way they soon round to check you out as you walk by, my boas barely notice or care about anything haha.

Fine once out tho...
I stood by his Viv reeling of names like a crazy person, I think he likes Hector, turned and looked, maybe a coincidence...
Maybe more crazy name calling is needed ha.

Just weighed him at 282g and a year old, a mainland female would be 8ft and 3000g lol.

Hector is a very unique name for a retic. Plus it makes him sound like a friend.

Hector has been sticking here so I guess it's decided, thanks guys n girls. Hector is awesome.
