Just received my new baby Super Dwarf Purple Albino Retic from WildSide via ColdBlooded couriers . He was in fabulous condition plus lovely and warm

He looks to be just going into shed so I'll leave him to settle in for while ..

I'm sorry to say I think you might have a new jewel in your collection. I love boas but the retic is just WOW. In Florida we need a special permit to have a big snake. If I remember right it is retics, burms, rock, anaconda, and some monitor.

. The state says that to many people were letting them go but I think it was from hurricane Andrew. Which took out about half the state. I think there was something like 300 big cats that they don't know what happened to them loose or dead who knows.

Sorry I went on a rampage there.

But you do have some stunning snakes.

I could never own a full size retic but I certainly would entertain the thought if I could count on 8' or less!

Retics are the longest snake

And green anacondas are the heaviest

Looks good for my boy being nice and manageable
