They stay pretty skinny too, so even though it's like "oh Damn a 7 foot male!" they aren't usually much more girthy than a corn snake. If it gets a bit bigger it could add girth too but you'll not see a retic that's small but with a anaconda or burm body shape, the snake would have to be overweight I'd think.
EDIT: oops I forgot to quote him, but I was just adding to what gio had said :)

So question... if a retic is 31.25% SD and 37.5% Dwarf and male how big would you estimate he'd be? 5-7' and how thick? Like pop can thick and eating large rats as an adult?
Will the smaller retics still do that kind of excretory damage or is that just another bonus of playing with the big kids?
I'm just trying to get an idea. Thanks!

I'm not an expert but I've talked to Cody about them a lot. A dwarf male, 100% pure dwarf male, gets to be 8', generally speaking. Pure SD males usually 5'-6'. (from what I've learned from Cody).
All retics eat a lot so I'm sure the smaller ones piss and crap as often, obviously just not the same amounts though haha.
I too am really wanting a retic so I've been absorbing as much knowledge as I can haha :D

Yeah that mostly. The mixes of dwarf and SD stuff can be tricky. The mainland will still give influence. If say 7' is a safe estimate. However, I'd still suggest to be prepared for up to a 10' male l. Thickness would be maybe a pop can
