    Kaloatoa

    Just a bought a Kaloatoa retic from Bob Clark an forgot to ask for a juvenile what size enclosure?
    I have a 28 qt tub an a CB70 I can use .
    As I understand it retics like to explore as opposed too BP that rather hide..
    I have several hides boxes too use as well...

    Retics prefer a hotspot of 90 an cool side upper 70's

    Retics like to push and destroy their faces lol. JM has a pure Kalatoa female which i believe is like 8' and he has it in a T25 cage. I have a male 37.5% SD, 31.5% dwarf male white albino tiger and he is 7' at 17 months old and in a T25 also. He is a handful and loves to come out, drop to the floor and wander around. I do still offer 2 jumbo RB hides as Caesar does like to sit in them during the day sleeping and then at night comes out and stares out the front of the cage until i open a door for him.

    So a CB 70 wouldn't be too big for a juvenile?
    Unfortunately I didn't get his or age from Bob only that he is a juvenile of this year..

    Should be fine. I put Caesar in a 4x2x15 AP cage with a shelf when i got him at 5 months old and 2' long. He used all of that cage. Just give a couple correct size hides and he will be fine.

    lol I think Phyllis may be closer to 9' now. She's a monster. OP, pure kalatoa from bob or what % kalatoa? '17 hatchling should be fine in cb70 for a little while at least. Send him an email or a FB message and he should be able to tell you a hatch date. I have a 50% SD ultra from him and got parents sizes, genetics, and hatch date on my little guy.

    You know I'm not a hundred percent on that they might be 50%it was kind of a weird conversation with Bob not that he was rude but he was short and I just didn't bother asking enough questions
    . I do know that he told me the parents were both under 10 feet
