	I keep hearing about cateaters. What hybrid is that? I'm fairly certain that it has either burm or retic in it.

kfethe,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 1:46:16 AM
	never mind. just looked at your burm hybrid list.

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 1:57:11 AM
	hehe, yep :)

	That piebald is hot!

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 4:49:37 AM
	He's awesome. I hope he proves out.

TheaN526,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 4:51:21 AM
	Too big for me!! lol. I have enough dreams about getting eaten by snakes..bleh.

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 4:52:36 AM
	You could always get a super dwarf ;) I've had mainlands and love them, but space is limited. I have no problem with the size but my trailer does!

TheaN526,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 5:04:36 AM
	A super super dwarf.. like 5-6 feet. LOL.

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 5:44:15 AM
	Lol the super dwarfs are 5-6 ft ;)

TheaN526,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 6:29:10 AM
	But isn't a retic still a retic? Just saying.. LOL. I guess I can't classify them all as "aggressive". What do I know.. lol.

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 6:31:22 AM
	They aren't aggressive, lol. I've had 4 and only one of them was mean... and he wasn't mean to me, just men, LOL. He was cage aggressive but once he was out he was fine. The other 3 were dollbabies! Especially the 16ft girlie I had, I would let her roam my room and she would coil up under my bed and sleep for a while, later coming out and getting on my bed with me to hang out. Retics are the coolest snakes I've ever owned!

TheaN526,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 6:38:22 AM
	Ahh, 16 ft? No...NO thanks!! I enjoy looking at them from afar.. Plus I don't want my dog to be a snack. Remember the 5 lbs? I don't mind people who have them, but I would not!

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 6:39:33 AM
	Yea, I wouldn't recommend the big guns to everyone... But I love em :) I want to get an SD since I don't have the room for a big one but who knows when that'll happen.

TheaN526,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 6:41:08 AM
	I will check out a Super Dwarf. Maybe get some experience, and than mull over it for a year. lol.

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 7:11:52 AM
	Yes, they are still retics so it is best to do a lot of research :) I've heard the SD's can be more flighty but I've also heard the opposite. I think raising one from a baby and handling it often would solve that.

TheaN526,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 7:17:20 AM
	More than likely. I've never actually raised any snakes from babyhood. LOL. Most of the snakes I have gotten are between 9 months and 4 years old. Not sure completely. In the case of a Retic though I would need to raise it from a young age.

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 7:19:18 AM
	They are great fun!

TheaN526,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 7:22:56 AM
	As long as they don't reach 20 feet.. fine by me! LOL. and doesn't chew my head off.. Wait, snakes don't chew. hehe.

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 7:24:19 AM
	haha. Well an SD won't even get over 7 ft so you'd be safe there! Just buy from a reputable person to be sure it is an SD. They are becoming easier to find every day.

TheaN526,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 7:31:51 AM
	Good, under 7 feet is manageable. My boa is about 6 1/2 feet. He is manageable.

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 7:36:45 AM
	Yep, and your boa is definitely bigger than an SD... they are more slender :)

TheaN526,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 7:39:12 AM
	I like slender. Boas tend to be pretty thick. It kind of freaks me out sometimes..but not really. I could manage a slender boa..and Poseidon is a little wild.. he's all over the place when you set him down. He's go go go, but when you hold him and walk with him he's calm. I guess it mellows him out. Oh, tangent over.. I'll check out the SD's and make sure it's an SD. I've seen some ads that are pretty misleading.

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 7:42:56 AM
	Yea, the true SDs are pretty easy to identify, they tend to be more silver and have a thinner black pattern on the back. Like this:

TheaN526,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 7:46:32 AM
	Thank you for that. I'll look out for them.:)

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 7:58:14 AM
	NP :)

Dawn Switzer,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 8:01:56 AM
	I have been thinking about getting a retic but. I am still. Doing my home work on them. ... I want to get more experience in handling big snakes before I venture into a retic: )

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 8:03:42 AM
	Definitely a good idea Dawn :) I ALWAYS recommend getting hands-on experience with the big guys. Also doing your research and getting your enclosure setup perfectly first is equally important!

Dawn Switzer,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 10:26:11 AM
	Yeah I now I just gotta find some one who will let me come visit and help clean and feed: )LOL I do fly for free: )

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 10:27:58 AM
	haha, good luck :P

Dawn Switzer,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 10:41:56 AM
	Thanks: ) LOL I. Do want but defaintly going to wait until I get his. Cage for when he I'd adult size: ) then I will get him LOL,

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 10:47:11 AM
	Good idea :)

wintersreptiles,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 12:59:29 PM
	I found a SD 08 male at Seattle reptiles was under 4 foot for $450. Mmmm

Chris Costa ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 11:14:35 PM
	retics are my fav, just cant get enough of them. and because of how slender they are, you can have a 12ft retic in a cage thats big enough for a 6-8ft boa. a basic boaphile would be fine for one. although ive only had up to 12ft retics, ive had 16ft burms way before i got into retics, and i must say it is much rewarding to raise them from the egg. i know alot of people say that snakes cant remember who you are, but i believe if they see and smell you everyday it know exactly who you are and is very unlikely to attack.

Chris Costa ,	Posted At: 3/5/2010 11:17:37 PM
	Dont forget about the snow and anery retics =-)

Abbo ,	Posted At: 3/6/2010 3:21:46 AM
	They are awesome animals :) and I do have the snow and axanthic ;)

Chris Costa ,	Posted At: 3/7/2010 4:29:29 PM
