Some retic pics - DUW

Haven't had too much time here, but I am finally working through some images that I can now post up here. Next post should be from Los Angeles, leaving out on Sunday to field herp / shoot photography working with Colorado Desert Sidewinders, and Southern Pacific Rattlesnake awesomeness!!! Till then, enjoy these beautiful retics who just got new vision caging after 9 weeks of production / shipping waiting!

Wow, those are amazing. I wish retics were legal here in Florida :(

They are legal in Florida, just require the Controlled Permits, micro chipping, and other things ;-)

Your the guy that posted the video of that retic on that clothes line trying to crawl on it. aren't you? if so it is funny as hell!

Great pics, thanks for posting. :gj::gj:

nice!:bow:

very nice. wish i had the room and funds to keep more retics. soon.. lol

yes, retics are not like ball python in any ways. They need larger cages, more room to move, cost a LOT more to feed, and require more time and dedication. I still love them though!

can you post that video again.

Sure - ill shoot it up on YouTube this evening

I would be very curious to hear/see what you think of the Papuan/Olive pythons. I love your Youtube clip describing the dwarfs and super dwarf retics. I really had considered some type of retic but knew size was a big factor. I met the guy from Vital Exotics at a show here in MN and both my daughter and I loved the retic he had.

I think you do a nice job educating people.

I'll keep checking here but I'm usually on the RTB forum. I love boas and retics.

I do not know too much about Papuan and Olive's, some, just not a lot. Size wise, they get fairly large - larger than most of the australian morelie spilotes complex (Mcdoweli, cheynai, harrisoni), and harder to come by. But there is a petition with a research paper going around in Australia right now to open the previous ban that had been placed on the industry, to help get an influx of australian pythons and venomous into the states legally, vice versa, get some of our speciality snakes into australia legally so there is no longer a black market for corn snakes which are techincally illegal to have there.

If you want to go with a larger python species, but not quite a retic, the australian pythons / new guinie pythons are fantastic places to look. And in the next 3 years, we may see a vast rise in what we have here in the states!

Sorry, still working on getting the youtube clip up. I'll TRY to remember tomorrow from home.

Cheers,

I just dig looking at your work. Not many do what you do with the knowledge and confidence you display. If there is ever a tiger retic that stays around 8 feet and isn't too snappy I might be looking.

Keep up the good work Sir.

There are options 75% SD Tigers of fed very slow will definitely stay under 8, heck 6-7 for males!
