    Retic Morph Temperment?

    So I have a question. I tried looking around and I may have missed it and if so I'm sorry. I've heard from a couple of breeders that some of the morph retics don't have the bad attitudes that a lot of retics can have. I was curious because I am interested in getting one down the road, I LOVE the super tigers. I was just curious if there was any truth to some of the morphs having better attitudes. Thanks in advance!

    i really would like to know also. i've been wanting a retic, but the girlfriend won't let me have one, cause of all the stories of bad temperment.

    I am a strong believer about the snake is what you make it out to be. If you treat the snake with respect and genuine care then it will be a great pet. Yes retics have a bad rep but I think with work they can be very docile except during feeding time! hahaha.... As far as the temperment I dunno about morphs? Mine is a normal baby retic and it is getting used to me just fine.

    We have a Super dwarf tiger sibling and an albino lavender and both are incredible snakes-they are handled often and are actually quite docile. Their feeding responses are amazing-they know when its time to eat and will hit the food hard.

    My experience has been that all tiger retics have a pretty good attitude. I've never encountered a mean one. EVER.

    Normals on the other hand..

    Re: Retic Morph Temperment?

    I love my baby 'tic. I am currently building a 12 ft. enclosure that will be the length of one of the walls in our new snake room. Which used to be the guest bed but we dont get too many guests anymore. Which might have something to do with the snakes. he he
