I see a lot of problems with people A. Power feeding to get them up to size fast. and B. Breeding to young.

Better to wait.

I am confused here. Please show me where Ben says it is ok to breed female retics at 18 months. I am not seeing it. Maybe, you are just wrong.

Have you gotten rid of your "Anasestine" yet? Hows the boa breeding going? Lets keep the incorrect advice to a minimum this time Plummer. Welcome Back.

What does my response have to do with Ben? I know Ben knows a TON more than me when it comes to this subject. I was giving out my opinion.
