I agree- don't take onm something that you are not ready for! Thoguh I would just LOVE to have a yellow anaconda- and would kill for a retic, rather it was a normal or morp- the retic will NEVER happen and the anaconda probably wont either.
I would say that you made a good choice-I still can't believe that someone would just pretty much give their snake away to someone that they dont even know if they could care for it or not. I've given away one snake to someone I know, and that was hard- I can only imagine how rediculous I'm going to be when selling baby's.. *shakes head* I'm probably going to be paranoid and end up keeping them all thinking that no one will care for them right. lol.
