Because... Jay is accurate and correct in his information. You don't need to power feed the animal or feed it heavy. I'm sure snakes stay 10-12 foot in the wild and breed and produce. Retics don't have to be monsters unless you make them as such.
If a 10'+ animal is too much for you alone, retics are not for you.
I handle every animal up to my 18' 140lb tiger alone every day (someone is nearby, but they don't help).
You are greatly mistaken. I personally held a 22' female last night. While it's not 25', she is still young.
The largest ON RECORD is 33'. The largest living retic is 25'. I'm lost as to why this is a lie??
