    He will be 2 years old in 16 days.

    Anybody ever wonder what it is like to handle a 7 foot retic?

    It isn't as difficult as some may think.



    Excuse his patchy coloring between the eyes. It is improving after some stuck shed a while back.

    Note, this is a one hand job. At least it was last night. He can get quite busy however last night was perfect.


    Here are some shots for perspective. You can see he curls up and when he does, he doesn't dwarf my hand.


    He's fed well and has become very interactive with me.

    I find it hard to believe that I can handle him like this, after seeing how big he looks in his cage.

    However I bought a male SD X Dwarf for this very reason.

    Another 2 - 2.5 feet of length and a bit more girth will not be an issue for me when handling with this animal.
