How the...
How the heck do people own full grown retics?
Im not trying to start anything negative, im just really wondering because it seems like so many people own young retics now days, they're all over youtube and what not.
Like...I would LOVE to own a retic but how would I house it as an adult? (still dont plan on it)
Wouldnt it require a zoo style enclosure? like something huge?
A retic just seems like too much snake for alot of people that I see owning them. I mean...as far as paying for an enclosure goes. I just picture a retic needing a room for itself! lol
enlighten me please!

Re: How the...
Well I have a 7 1/2' male, so obviously a "zoo style enclosure" I do not own. LOL
I think males would be fine in an 6' cage.
I have seen females in 8' cages, and they did not seem cramped at all.

Re: How the...
that kinda goes back to the BHB thread about to small of cages. if you were to give a retic a whole room it would probably curl up in a corner and not move till feeding time

Re: How the...
You make a dedication to properly housing the snake. Like my large monitors, you have to be willing to make or buy a large enclosure, and be ready to clean a lot, and feed a lot.
Whether you believe it needs a room, or just a really large cage(8ft), it's still a huge space and a large undertaking. Takes a lot of dedication to house and care for some of the large reptiles, and a special person to do it properly just out of love for the animal.

Re: How the...
If I had a retic I would still give it the option to crawl around if it wanted. But thats just my style.
Thanks for the replys!
