    Addiction has officially set in

    So I currently have 2 ball pythons 1 normal and 1 lemon pastel. I just saw an albino reptic asking price of $250. Is that a good deal? Looks healthy, and awesome!!! Not sure of much detail. First just wanted to see if the asking price is good? Also is there anything special I should know about them?

    Albino retic**?? Kind of a huge jump to go from ball pythons to retics don't you think?

    Does anyone on here have any experience with them? Are they aggressive? Do they get that big fast or they slow growers?

    my guess would be to maybe stick with ball pythons for awhile.

    I'd stick with the ball pythons. :/
    If you wanted to try at a larger snake, I'd go for a boa and THEN contemplate getting a retic.

    Yeah, retics get huge. Start with bps, then when you want a bigger snake move up to a boa. Then after that, maybe consider a retic.
