Cow Retics Size

[bcr229]

Hi can you please tell me more about retics. I really like them but kinda not sure about them since everyone keeps telling me they are aggressive or very reactive with a very strong feeding response. I have been waiting for 8 years just so I have enough time and money to move out so I can own snake so I really want to learn more about retics from people. I take snake very seriously and not a pet and recognize its size can get real quick that is why I want to learn how to handle them.

I only have one that is truly "aggressive", a pure super dwarf male. The rest simply have a strong food response, which is manageable with hook training.

These are not snakes you want to handle alone.

By "moving out" do you mean that you are moving into a rental or are you purchasing your own home? I can't recommend keeping a retic as a renter, as even landlords that are ok with snakes/caged pets will have an issue with you keeping a giant python on the property.
