Re: All you retic owners that raised the babies!
I got my Albino Burmese Python December of 2010. He was a little hatchling then; in his first year, he grew to be about 6 foot long. Next month is his birthday, and he's coming up to 9 feet. I have to agree with some people that wrote on this thread, nearly everyone that has a giant get to over 9 feet within their first year power feeds it some how. My Tiger Reticulated Python was born on Valentines Day of 2012 and he's only about 5 feet right now. Main reason for this because I started both of my snakes out on mice since small rats are very difficult to find in my area. I then switch my snakes from adult mice to medium rats and eventually chickens. I started my burm out in a 30 gallon long tank for about 8 months of his life, then built him a 5 x 3 cage; my retic will most likely get a bigger one when he gets to size. However, I plan on getting them both 8 foot cages when I'm out of my parents house in a few years. I feed both of my snakes appropriate sized meals every two weeks.. I feed them this way because I want them to grow at their own rate and have no intentions on breeding them anytime soon..
