Well, I have 2 retics, and one more comming (a tiger female). I am also looking for a 100% het albino female adult by the way (hint hint to anyone who has one they don't want!!), I also have 7 burms (heavier than retics at the same legnths, even if they are more "lazy" and laid back).
I know and agree with what you are saying about the cage cleaning. They are NOT for everyone. I look at it as being similar to giant dogs. Some people are more willing to over look the hassles of having an English Mastiff, while other people can barely keep up with a toy poodle. It is all a matter of dedication and knowing what you really, really want. That is why I say the maturity level is so much more important than a persons age when it comes to owning large snakes (any pet, for that matter)
By the way, one of my retics is a 7 year old, 15 ft male. So, yes I "know" about those piles of ***fecal matter***.
