Yeah, They're amazing. I'm with you, though. I can't see myself doing it.
But WOW. They are beautiful. Amazingly huge!
In all fairness four are huge and a fifth one has the potential to become huge. The other are either males (which may become huge, but for breeding it is better to keep them slender) or dwarf variants. My oldest retic is a wild caught dwarf that is more the size of a smaller adult carpet python.
