It's up to you. If you have any doubts (be realistic with yourself) then wait a bit: go with your gut. Take into account the money aspects, manpower needs (ie someone to help when it gets big), stability (in terms of housing when it gets to be an adult and if you're renting or not or have a permanent home, etc), the new ban for burms (maybe retics in the future too) if you may move out of state down the road, and possible space issues. But I love my retic and IMO you can't go wrong with one (burms for that matter too).
