Anyone with experience?

It's not just the laws you need to consider when owning any of the giant snakes. You also have to realistically consider the husbandry requirements. You will need a VERY large enclosure to properly house an adult Retic. In the neighborhood of 12x12, climate controlled and access to a qualified person to assist you anytime you work with the animal. While retics and Burms are really cool animals, their husbandry and safe handling requirements are every bit as big as they are. Not something to be taken lightly. Just a thought...
