    Wow, the only similarity between ball pythons and reticulated pythons is the fact that they're both pythons. There are a lot of HUGE differences between the two, size being one of the very big differences....

    This is me and a NOT full grown female retic. Be aware I had three grown men in the room with me, and less than half of her is pictured. I'm not a tiny girl, I'm 5'6 and 135 lbs.

    Re: Addiction has officially set in

    ok you are all right. that would be tooo much to handle especially with me only having bp's for a year. Thank you for your quick input and firm answers.
    and i really dont want to come off as dumb, a retard or dumb snake keeper, so i am sorry for my unknowledgeable reply's. i like to think of my self being knowledgeable about ball pythons up to some extent. i am still learning and growing. I love this hobby and will respect my boundrys . and I will for sure do some more research and possibly look into boas to work my self up. i will not buy the rectic as i am obviously not prepared. i just never knew what a rectic was so looking at one ( not much bigger than my snakes ) struck an interest. thank you all

    This is good to hear, and judging by this post you are definitely not stupid.

    This post is not what someone would say "This is good to hear, and judging by this post you are definitely not stupid", the fact you proactively did research before buying this particular breed of a python or any for that matter shows you willing do do you research before making a decision. The only "stupid" question is the one that is not asked.
