Super Dwarf Retics have amazing dispositions, mine have never hissed, struck or have ever even shown signs of aggression. Some of my ball pythons are more aggressive than they are. Imo, if you can handle a honduran milksnake, then a super dwarf retic is nothing.
I live in Florida, the permit is 100$, its a bit, but then again if you want a retic, or boa, or burm etc. and your in Fl. its necessary. I like the permit idea I have heard of too many people who say they get rid of their snakes when they get "too big" so the permit kinda helps in keeping those inconsiderate people away from larger constrictors. I only wish the permit was a lil bit cheaper though.i want one but probably won't get it. In florida you have to have a permit now to have any retics. kinda sucks!
