Sally, lavender SD retic

First off, gorgeous snake! I’m not into the large large breeds but I appreciate them none the less. Retics especially. They just look smart. Those eyes make you realize that there is not just some simple reptile brain behind them. That girl can think! And she’s a looker ;)

Second off, gorgeous pics of what I’m assuming is your back yard.

While I don’t ever see myself getting a retic I will gladly appreciate other people’s haha. It would be nice to meet one in person though. Keep up with the pics and updates!

Thanks Gio!

Lew-e, Thanks. Yeah they are defiantly a more intelligent species and you can see them calculating their next move. I'm glad mine are smaller, I doubt I would really enjoy working with or the risk involved with anything 10'+.

Thanks, though technically it's my front yard. The taller uncut grass is a swampy area that feeds into my creek. It's a great place to finds frogs, turtles and other snakes. :D

Awesome front yard then!
The wife and I plan on buying 10 or so acres in 5-7 years and building a home. Hoping to find some land with a creek. I did habitat restoration stuff while in college and love the thought of cleaning a creek up or adding a small prairie or wetland.

I think anything over 10 feet would be a stretch for me

gorgeous colors and face! now she looks like shes a big girl compared to your boy. what are her current metrics?

That pic was taken with her in a 6qt shoebox tub and she filled up half. She is going on roughly 2 weeks empty now since she has been in blue. She's just over 4' and weighed in at 800g even. So the two are about equal currently but she is a year younger than him, half his SD %, and is a female. Her estimated final size should be around 9'.

Too much snake for me but soooo pretty. Thanks for sharing! :gj:

She looks fantastic and appears to be far better behaved than my male Dwarf x SD

What a lovely lady! I can't get over the beautiful color gradient on her sides! Don't think I'll ever get into retics but there are so many beautiful color & pattern morphs. She's a stunner!
