Of course, I wake up this morning and it was filled with poop...

She is gorgeous. I'd be all over a titanium if they were in dwarf or super dwarf, but I think a mainland is above my ability. Hopefully in a few years we will see some smaller lines coming out.

Yea, can’t imagine when she’s 20’!!! Good thing she’s sweet (mostly)

Re: Alice, The Titanium Reticulated Python
She’s a beautiful beastie W! I almost snagged a retic but opted for the scrub instead. Now that you’ve had them for a while let’s circle back to Gio’s question. Have you noticed any differences/similarities between your retic and scrub in terms of temperament, growth rate, or feeding patterns? You have some awesome critters!

Thank you very much!
Huge differences!
- Retic is sweet once tapped with the hook, scrub will bite you if you look at it.
- The trick to handling the scrub is be quick and confident. The scrub is the fastest snake I’ve ever seen, unless you catch it before it’s ready. Open the cage and bam grab it. If you try that with a retic, you’re food.
- Growth rate is not too dissimilar actually, I’d say without the hard numbers in front of me. However, I am stunned how fast my scrub is growing. It is longer than my retic, and my retic is 9ft. Based on the rate of growth, I wouldn’t be surprised if I end up with an impressively sized scrub.
- Feeding patterns are quite different too. Scrub goes on and off food periodically. I switch between rats and quail. It will not eat during shed. It will also not eat with me in the room; I leave the food overnight. Retic will eat anything, anytime with ferocity.
In conclusion, get a retic! My scrub is an awesome and impressive snake, but it is not a replacement for a retic, IMO. Plus, you can pick up some nice looking morphs for way too cheap. Retics probably should not be that accessible lol
