Isnt retics the king of pythons, or all snakes, specially female retics? Isnt a retic bigger than a burm?

What does it matter?

Yes female retics do normally reach greater sizes than burms, but each giant "king"or not shouldn't be underestimated.


I surely hope you didn't get a retic for these reasons.

well, it depends on how you look at it. burms will be much heavier and thicker than a retic, while the retic will usually be longer and thinner.

and with you being only 14 years old i really hope you have someone to help you with that thing when it gets to be 6+ feet long in one year. (im not saying you dont but im just trying to help you out)

No, i was just curios, i just love retics, the way they act, everything they do!
I have 1 female retic, 1 columbian red tail and ball python, milk snake, floridan king, and a green anaconda, out of all the snakes ive had in the past, the retic in my opinion is the most spectacular, im just stating my opinion, not critisizing anything.

Got even more then me! haha, well im allowed to sneak anything in my parents dont know about and let them figure it out themselves. lol. If I was you I would re-think any large boid as big as a retic, burm, or anaconda as they do normally achieve lengths of 12ft+ UNLESS your parents, brothers or sisters are willing to help you. All we need is another "15 year old teen is found dead after being suffocated by pet Reticulated Python". As you know, its happened before, all i can say is "be careful and do what you want to do as far as reptiles go!"
