Try telling him Retics dont make good pets. lol

Cutest ever!! I love gentle giants :love:

Those are awesome pics! I love the big guys. Thanks for sharing!

Awww.....so cute! :D

That's awesome. I have a few pics of my girls ( 4, 11 and 12 ) holding the burms and retics too. They love those snakes and its awesome to see other people and their kids sharing the love of reptiles!

These pictures are too cute! Gorgeous snake too! So how much growing does this retic have left to do?

Cute pics and a great looking snake :) but my wife said we can only have Balls:P

He...is...adorable!! Love those pictures!!

Thanks everyone. This is a 2 year old male so he has some more growing to do lol

Absolutely beautiful reitic. I would LOVE to actually be able to own one.. in your opinion, Because I've seen you own a few other giants. :P would a male stay under the 15 foot? I've read it could easily hit 20 while some only hit around 11..

it all depends on genetics and your feeding schedule. We dont feed our males as often as we feed our females so they dont get as big as our females.

And I believe genetics play a big part in some snakes for instance the male pictured is 2 years old and around 12 feet. But I have two Burmese python males one labyrinth that 4 years old and gets a rabbit or guinea pig every other week and is only 8 feet. And a normal het albino that is 2 that is only around 4-5 feet he however is a very stubborn eater.

What a vicious beast your child looks absolutely frightened ;) Very cute pics!

Beautiful snake and happy kid....looks like a happy family to me!

yes but better watch out...

For what? The killer child eating pythons every one talks about?

I was thinking that you'd lose your snakes to your son lol

You should see how upset they get if I clean there cages without them. They love there snakes.

I remember when mine were little, they'd throw a fit if they didn't get to help do any of it. Now that they have their own bps, they take really good care of them without me having to say much. Mine are much older now....16 and 18.
