    My First Retic Bite!!! (Pics)
    I know it isn't much, but i have officially been initiated. I was holding my little purple girl outside my house. when all of a sudden some kid walks up and puts his hand in her face. SO WHAT DOES SHE DO? SHE TURNS AROUND AND BITES ME! Needless to say she is sleeping now.

    she's really good most of the time. she was just experiencing something new and it scared her. i feel bad now, but she will eventually get used to it. my male has.

    Awww! She kissed you! :) If she's acting nippy, a few minutes here & there of consistent, gentle interaction go a long way towards taming a young retic. Lots of good, positive handling now while she's young will help you establish a rapport with that snake.

    i have started trying to work with her on that. I just have been able to get her out due to her going into shed right after i got her + her eating + being new and needing to acclimate.................................................. The list goes on and on. I always want to hold her but there is always something preventing me from doing it.

    My other guy (oakley) is getting big fast. I love him. he was really hard to keep calm. But oakley and i have been workin on it as much as we can, and he's doing great.

    thanks jon, she is doing great! she's eating on a weekly basis (as you can see in the pic), 99% of the time she is very tame and loves to be handled. But there is that 1% where she becomes a mean little monster.
