I've been a little lax on posting pictures of this beautiful snake. Wallace is doing very well here and is growing rapidly like most retics.
I shot these pictures earlier today.
I wish the first couple came out a little sharper.
I learned a little something today about these guys. I had Wallace out and he is always good for me once out of his cage. I let him curl around my wrist and he is pretty chill. Today I let him go to floor. Bad idea! He was off like a shot. I was lucky to have the last bit of him in my hand or he would have been off to the races. This species is one of the, if not the, fastest moving python there is. He is best kept in hand while he is small. He's a few clicks over 4 feet long these days. Maybe 4.5 feet. I am not able to measure this guy.
The species is just sensational, and I love the Tiger pattern, This guy is SD X Dwarf and a small percentage of mainland.
I really like the last two shots here. He is improving in color with age. Retics are one species that actually always gets better as they age.
Thanks for looking.
