Yeah I sent him an email a day or so after I got it and offered me a heck of a deal on a female, but I can't talk my GF into buying it for me after she just spent 450 on this little firecracker. hehe. I think I will just feed him once a week don't want him to get to huge. Check this ot and you will see what I am referring to. lol. http://mahn001.tripod.com/id28.html

When SD retics go into shed, the "blue stage" isn't that noticeable really, looks to me like he has passed that stage though.

YEah now that I took him out he is a bit darker then he was when I got him. Just didn't notice cus I have been leaving him alone. Thanks for the info. It's hard to find super dwarf info so I just went off of mainland caresheets when I was researching. I actually wasn't quite ready for one but my girlfriend saw me checking out Garricks site and she just ordered it. I should have guessed when she asked if i had another setup ready lol.

Yep, I know what you mean on finding info on these lil guys, it ain't easy. Luckily though they require basically the same temps and humidity as the mainlands. Here is some good info on them, and a caresheet I wrote for them.

Garrick had a great page on them as well, but he took it down when he redesigned his site. :confused:
Re: My new SD Retic from Garrick DeMeyer
Very nice. I got my SD retic about a month ago. I love him. They are awsome. And yeah about info, just go by mainland retic's. I got mine from steve from repti-racks and gave me a great deal. 250 for him. :D And now im buying some cages from him since he was so great. The only thing weird about my SD is he takes alottt longer than my BP to eat a mouse. He constricts for much longer and then seems to look around while holding the mouse then eats it. But im sure you'll love em. Goodluck and Congrats

Re: My new SD Retic from Garrick DeMeyer

Love that stripe that seems to go from head to tail. I wonder if that's a genetic trait that can be passed on. hehehe

My most recent captive, Bumblebee, would even strike things that "move suddenly"...like a falling piece of paper...or the curtains. :D
