BrianSmith,
I want to say that your post wasn't long enough! I thouroughly enjoyed your story. (very well written too, I must say) I have a 9 month old, female retic now, that's about 6+ feet. She's my first "big" snake, and I love her to death. Not being very experienced with large constrictors, i've been going through a learning process for the last 7 1/2 months that i've had her. I read EVERYTHING possible on snakes in general, but ecspecialy retics. But I know there's no books that can teach hands-on-experience. I was wondering if you could help me out with any questions or just in general along the way. I've been coming to this board for about 6 months now, and you realy know your stuff. I'd like to learn from someone like that. I would definitly be receptive to personal experience stories, retic do's and dont's, etc. I'm oblivious to these awesome animals, like I said i've done alot of homework and research on these guys, but nothing beats experience. Thanks for reading.
