What Colour Morph is this? - Page 3

There'll be burms for sure at Donnie in all the morphs. Still a lot of snake to take on but generally less unpredictable than a retic (note Dave's comment regarding Daisy though).

I don't know any good breeders I can recommend I'm afraid but i can ask around if any reputable ones are going to be there.

As for SD retics there I can recommend a good source but I don't think there's any available right now.

I've always LOVED Retics and Burms but I also know/respect my limits. While I believe I could handle such a large snake, I still think it's just a bit too much for me. That uncertainty stops me from taking the plunge. Like Danny said there are a few species of slightly smaller snakes that are very rewarding to keep. I love the SD retics, Coastal Carpets and Bredli pythons. I also have a young male Olive python that's really a lot of fun. I'm super excited to watch him grow and even though they top at around 10-12 ft, they're commonly known as one of the more gentle giants.

Good shout on the bredli. Still resisting the one they have in my favourite store...

Dave, I think I shall be getting a Male. Your female is HUGH!

Is that nice picture of the Albino of a Male, it so, what length is he?

And, Danny, Yes Please, if you can let me know of good breeders that will be there I will look out for them.
Are you allowed to state what kind if price I should be paying for an Albino?

Yes mate that's the male, but he's turned out pretty big for a male. Here's a more recent pic of him and if I had to guess I'd say he's around 10ft or maybe a wee bigger

I have just uploaded these images:

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And to think I was going to keep a retic capable of reaching 16ft.

That is one impressive snake. I hope to find a hatchling that will grow to exactly that. Fantastic

Thanks mate, and our female isn't even that big for a burm. Like I said if you know what you're getting yourself into and have done you're research, you should be OK.

No idea on pricing but I can ask a few people and see if anyone knows anything. I'll try and get a recommendation for a breeder as well.
