Just make sure you have this snake for the right reasons.
If it's to brag about how big of snake you got, then find a new home for it now.
If it's because you truly like the animals, then make sure you are prepared for it. They need large housing, large food and lots of respect.
And be sure you can afford it. Caesar has cost me a nice chunk of change in the past 9 months. $700ish in his new cage and $45 a month for food, not to mention substrate etc. And like I said, if he needs a T65 cage, that will run me probably close to $1000 with shipping
Again, that's most of the reason I went with a SD. More manageable and cheaper kind of.
Guy that lives by me who is huge into BIG reptiles like monitors and retics as well as keeping wolves has a 16'+ female retic that he feeds goats to lol. But he also breeds Black Roughneck Monitors so he has the resources and land etc for it. He keeps his own goats and chickens and stuff lol.
