SD Retic--1 yr old
My super dwarf reticulated python is 1 yr old! We got this guy last July, and he's growing like crazy! This is when we first got him-he's about 5months old here

Re: SD Retic--1 yr old
And here he is a few weeks ago. We hope he is a true super dwarf--hes already close if not all of 5ft long at 1yr old. [sorry the pic is sideways, I cant get it to go vertical]

Re: SD Retic--1 yr old
Well he's got dwarf blood in him for sure(looks like a madu, or maybe a kayuadi. A little bright for a kalatoa), couldn't tell you if he's pure though. kyle(millertime89) might be able to tell you he's seen a lot more of them then I have. 5 feet does seem a little big for a year. My female pure kalatoa is over 3 feet and 8 months old, and my pure jamp female was under 5ft at a year.
Who produced him? I've got a pair of kalatoas from Travis kubes and they are just awesome animals(still like my jamp more tho).
What's his feed response like(I get mixed answers with pure sd)?

Re: SD Retic--1 yr old
we got him from the reptile show in St. Louis, missouri. Not sure who the seller was though.

Re: SD Retic--1 yr old
his feeding response is crazy, but he's never struck at me or my boyfriend.

sounds risky buying a sd from an unknown seller! but hopefully some more experienced people will chime in.

Re: SD Retic--1 yr old
Did they say a locality like any of the ones I listed? What kind of feeding schedule do you have him on?

Re: SD Retic--1 yr old
Idk he seems to be a bit big to be pure(unless they gave you a wrong age). Travis kubes told me his male pure kalatoas typically dont get bigger then 6 feet. My female kalatoa is on a 5-7 day feeding schedule with meals at 20-25% body weight. She's not nearly that big; a little over 3 feet and under 200 grams empty.
But he definitely got some dwarf in him, so he's not going to be a monster either way.

Re: SD Retic--1 yr old
Yeah I can't remember who the breeder was. But I'm happy we got him either way. He's an awesome snake. One I've wanted for awhile now.

Re: SD Retic--1 yr old
For what it is worth, a bit over a year ago a friend gave me his SD retic that he got at a St. Louis show without much info about the animal. I started a thread a while back and millertime (and others) did think it was 50% SD. It looks a lot like yours and now at just about three years of age it is 8 feet. I feed it one every 10 to 14 days. Check out the thread and let me know what you think; probably not a year old yet. Mine grew very rapidly it's first two years. Great snakes, I certainly love mine.
