Fresh Pics post shed of my SD Retic

[Lankyrob]

Here is Doc, i LOOOOVE him, by far my favourite snake. So calm so chilled out. I can touch his head and stroke between his eyes without him flinching.

gorgeous! I love how the look right after a shed. so shiny and vivid.

[Lankyrob]

I agree, just a shame that the camera cant pic up the vitality of the scales.

[candyraver69]

Yeah it really is. I have been wanting to get a better camera so bad because I can't begin to show off how gorgeous my new babies are without a better camera. Even the best camera isn't like seeing it first hand though.

funny, i was going to say "SOMEone needs a new camera!" lol ;)

[Lankyrob]

Unfortunately the camera i get most of pics on is my phone, it is always to hand whereas i do have a very nice camerabut by the time it is set up the opportunity is gone. If i plan a photo session then i use the nice one tho.

Looking good how big is he getting?

[Ch^4]

Beautiful! He has great looking eyes and coloration!

[Lankyrob]

I would put him somewhere between four and five feet at the moment, hard to tell cos he is always wrapped around an arm when out of the viv.

Lookin good rob beautiful

[Sapphyr]

Awww~ Gotta love them eyes~

[maitre]

His eyes kind of reminds me of my short tail pythons' eyes : P kinda doofus looking but way more sharp. Great looking retic!

[Lankyrob]

You can certainly tell when he is watching you with those eyes - they kinda stare into your soul and you get a real feeling of "connection" with him.

He is looking really good, i love how retics watch everything even my burm does that.

[Steve'O]

Awesome! I love my little retic as well. They have such interesting personalities, much different from my other snakes. If is hard to get pics that show off retics true iridescence. It is finally warming up here and if I make it home while there is still good light today, I may try to get some outside shots of mine!

[SnakeyJay]

Hey rob.... How big do sd retics get average? Maybe in a few years id want to have one. Yours looks stunnibg though.

[Lankyrob]

Thanks - think somewhere between 6 for a small one and 10feet for a large one.

[SnakeyJay]

Sounds like it will definately be a few years befor I get one... Need more room... And I think ill get abit of experience handling one from some1 who has one.

[Lankyrob]

Not sure waht the general consensus is on their behaviour but Doc is amazingly calm and seems to love being out and handled. Like i said before he will even let me stroke between his eyes and just sit there looking at me. Only time he has ever struck at me was when i tried opening his feeding tub to put a second prey item in. Now he is fed in his viv he hasnt struck once.

Doc looks and sounds awesome.
