Super Dwarf Reticulated Python, The Best Pet Snake?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- Reticulated pythons are pretty much the perfect snake--except for the fact that they are gigantic, dangerous, and eat farm animals. If only there were tiny retics... Wait, what? There are super dwarf retics?! Is this the best pet snake?! Is the super dwarf reticulated python the best pet snake for you?

Clint!! Thank you so much for the kind words! We have been working with these little guys for generations now, and I feel in some cases really taking the first steps towards a truly “domesticated” reptile. Many people who only knew them 2-3 generations ago would be VERY surprised by how they are now! On a sidenote, I have been wanting to set up a large walk-in enclosure based on Sulawesi island for a mainland Retic in the new shop. Do you know what else lives on Sulawesi? It’s green, small, and loves to jump on people… Maybe I need to put some thought into how to accomplish a multi species environment?
I just checked out your website and wanted to say that you have some of the most beautiful morphs and patterns. When I can buy one I will for sure be going to you!!
So did I hear you correctly that Dwarf/Super Dwarfs have the same "charm / spice" as their mainland counterparts, or not?
@@daviddibble958 They do!
I got my Super Dwarf from you via CNB reptiles, and he is my FAVORITE snake ever! I can pull out my ball pythons when I'm doing something else and they'll hang out with me, but when I just want to straight up handle a snake, as the activity, I pull him out and am both mesmerized and soaked in pee haha. I named him Clint, by the way! Thank you so much Garrett for my best friend!
You're snakes look fantastic! I would love to get one but living in Europe it's nigh on impossible to find any.
Clint's joy at telling me I could die will always make me smile and worry at the same time
Steve Irwin spent so many years trying to convince the world that the retic is big and dangerous and it was completely undone by Clint hauling the front third of that beautiful nanner back onto his lap with great effort.
They can be almost perfectly safe! Mainland retic guardians just need a snake spotter!
especially with that smile lmao
"That was amazing",
now i can't tell whether i should listen to him or not.
Dudududududu....
- flash news-
A pyton with bulging stomach found at 284 s main street, springville, utah, police have now secure the snake and will try to identify the snake, where it's comes from, and what the content of it's suspicious bulging stomach. We will cover this again after we get more information and update.
What
To all *TEXANS* who want to know- Retics aren’t illegal, though a $20 license is required to possess & transport them.
Didn’t even know that dude thank you!!!
Ah, that explains why I see so many retic breeders from texas on morphmarket. I was wondering about that.
Very good to know👍
Why doesn't this surprise me.
What about the dwarfs and super dwarfs?
Clint: *almost gets bitten in the face*
Clint: It was amazing
It kind of is though lol. It really does make you think of the matrix every single time. Ive had big false water cobras and burmese pythons and retics nearly get me on the nose before. Its a rush for sure lol. Scary, and not something id want to do on purpose, but the rush you get from barely dodging a bite is kind of "amazing" in a way lol.
It is! I've had ball pythons and juvie boas do it while I was handling them a few times. I'm very careful with going into their enclosures, so nothing ever happens there. But sometimes, you don't pay attention and it just strikes. It gets you wide eyed and shocked for a second. The only way I can describe it is like watching a nature show and a snake strikes at the camera in slow motion. It's funny that there's a strike and they just go about hanging out and exploring.
"Snake almost bit me right on my face...it was amazing! :D" Love that entusiasm
I saw a video where a man was hatching baby pythons, but the mother kept trying to bite him-
Which was alarming, because she was
G I G A N T I C.
I've always thought it was sort of adorable how the super dwarfs have eyes the same size as the mainland retics, but on a much smaller face.
insular dwarfism and gigantism is one of the most fascinating things ever
Now imagine a population of retics that experienced insular gigantism to hunt larger prey species. Sounds like a good topic for my first ever speculative evolution project haha
@@Sometallguy Well as they are now they sometimes hunt people. Dont think you can find anything larger on an isolated island. But you can speculate on seal-eating arctic snakes. They are white and stealthy, very hard to find.
Athena is absolutely stunning.
I came here to say the same thing. WOW!!!
When talking about Care I would love to see some examples of enclosures. Would be very nice :)
That would be great and a good extra step for these types of videos if Clint can provide it without too much hassle
I think having the enclosure sizes and temperatures on the screen when mentioned would be excellent also !
^^^
For a sd retic it tends to vary on their size and personality. Same for retics. 6 feet long by 3 foot wide and 2 foot high is probably the minimum size. You want them to pretty much be able to stretch out the length of the cage. Some like smaller cages and some love larger cages with a shelf in their.
Check out the video by Reach Out Reptiles where they rate enclosures sent into them. A lot could be better imo but google could also suffice, I wouldn’t count on any one source being your final source anyways so it’s perfectly fine being imperfect.
I have to recommend these animals especially from Garrett at the highest level. 10/10 reptile, seriously you wont regret jumping in the SD game

@@traivongilchrist4455 Ö
@@traivongilchrist4455 why does that translate to island?🤣
Good! I am getting my first SD from them! It's newso it's gotta eat a few more times B4 they ship him out to us!! CAN NOT WAIT!!
Seconded on this. I have a SD male from Garrett, he's an absolutely fantastic animal.
I got a warning bite from a 15’ reticulated python. It was a bloody mess and I was grateful not to be holding him when it happened. I was especially grateful the men who had been terrified of the snake had left before it happened, I can only imagine how much it would’ve traumatized them.
“A heat source with a thor-Thor-mostat. ….It controls the hammer.”
Clint you are a comedic genius! 😂
Athena is one of my most favorite snakes in the world. My family loved handling her in the reptile room when I bought them there. Because of her, I will some day own a super dwarf retic. Hopefully sooner rather than later. They have so much personality and are a joy to be around.
As someone who always saw retics as "dream snake that won't happen", I love that there are SD retics. I hope they will get available in Europe, too.
I can point you towards sd retics in the UK. Kalatoa, karompa's or kauardi. I used to breed them and can get 75% purple albino sd.
Good to know!
I'll definitely keep that in mind!
Clint- “this is a better pet than a ball python”
My ball pythons- “EXCUSE ME, SIR?!”
I hope my babies didn't hear
@@Brime69 not OP but I have a banana, ultra dark normal and spider Calico pastel lesser (she was a re-home)
So all the pros of a retic without the cons of being a giant monster god damn that's a tempting offer
I hadn't heard of drawf/super drawf until Reach out reptiles. If I ever got a retic, it would be one of those.
It’s convenient that you and Antscanada upload literally one minute apart so I watch yours then go straight over to Antscanada
Oh man, I had to take a break from antscanada after the fire nation died off. I never realized I could get so attached to a parasocial relation with a fire ant colony!
@@CandiceLemonSharks The fire nation died before I started watching but I did get attached to the phoenix empire and now he is giving them away with the golden empire and bobble heads😭
I was actually looking into owning a super dwarf earlier this month. I knew that the mainland was illegal but there was nothing on the dwarf/super dwarfs. Unfortunately, when I got into contact with my states environmental conservation department, they told me “Because dwarf Burmese and Reticulated pythons are still classified as the same species as standard Burmese and Reticulated, they are classified as dangerous animals and cannot be legally possessed as pets”. A little confusing because I can still own a boa constrictor imperator and almost all the Morelia species of python (can’t own scrub pythons).
Where do you live?
@@Wingedshadowwolf NY state
@@krissadventures pretty sure even if a snake escaped in NY it would likely die of cold exposure. Politicians as usual who make the rules dont even understand the rules they put in place 🙄. And frankly most giant snakes are actually far safer than big dogs. But you can't educate the willfully ignorant
@@Madchris8828 I agree, but I don’t think New York is afraid of a snake getting out and killing someone, they are afraid that it’s going to kill the keeper of the snake. Very unfortunate considering that every new generation of captive bred snake is a little more peaceful compared to the previous generation. You can see this with larger snakes very well.
You're allowed to keep them for now. Like Clint said, support USARK. I believe state governments are going to continue going after our animals.
There was also a species of mammoths which was called the pygmy mammoth that grew only as big as s cow. This dwarf retic is the same case. I think it is to not finish all the food on a small area due to the big size. But also some animals become really big on an island, like Galapagos tortoises, komodo dragons etc.
Yeah that's island dwarfism and island gigantism it's cool
Giant boar would like to know your location.
Greeks: No, no, no.
@@bulbasaurhimself8914 yeah, it's so cool
There were actually several species of pygmy mammoth on islands all over the world.
@@sampagano205 oh, cool. Didn't know that. Thanks.
Absolutely gorgeous snakes. I would love to add one of these to my reptile family... Not sure if I'd be able to convince my parents to get on board with that, though. Apparently, '28 snakes are enough', so unreasonable, eh?
There's no such thing as enough!
+the potential for parthenogenisis... That could be a lot of snakes!
@@Aima952 God I hate parthenogenic reproduction. Never can get rid of MTS from my aquariums due to their ability to reproduce Lil clones of themselves.
@@aichmalotizo9873 sounds like mourning geckos lol.
This reminds me of an old meme that was passed around the teptile shop i worked at. It was a photo of a huge wall of reptile enclosures and it said,
"If anyone ever tells you you have too many reptiles..."
"Stop talking to that person, you dont need that kind of negativity in your life".
For us employees, many of which bred reptiles, it was painfully accurate lol.
I am a sucker for yellow snakes they just look so gorgeous! I only have experience with ball pythons though so I am not sure if a retic would be too big of a leap for me.
A super dwarf is in most ways a better pet than a ball python.
It's a leap in the right direction I'd say.
The dwarf would at least eat regularly.
Jungle carpet pythons have gorgeous yellows
I have 2 super dwarves from Garrett, and I think they are incredible and recommend them highly. With that said, one of the thing SOME people like about the ball python is that it is a slow moving to even stationary snakes. Retics move, A LOT, more so than even boas. This is something I could see throwing some people off about them. That's the only thing I could see requiring an adjustment period for a handler. That an like Clint said repeatedly, they love to eat. No more hunger strikes. My two cents.
Having first been introduced to super dwarf retics three years ago with the release of this video, and having wanted a pet snake my entire life, as of today I've gotten my first snake - a super dwarf retic. Thanks so much Clint!!
So thrilled to see Garrett Hartle on the channel. I had the pleasure of meeting Garrett in person a few times at reptile expos in Pittsburgh, and he is just as friendly, personable and informative in person as he was on your channel (and is on his own Reach Out Reptiles channel). I do not own a Super Dwarf Retic (at least not yet!), and when I first met him at an expo, I was up front about the fact that I was in no way prepared to purchase one, but was just admiring them. Despite this, Garrett not only let me hold one of his amazing snakes, but took quite a bit of time to educate me on the species and about his breeding program. I will never forget the experience. (The snake was a Black Golden Child, and I could not believe the rainbow iridescence…) I have been so pleased to see the very well-deserved growth and success he has experienced as a breeder these past few years. It is clear that he takes excellent care of his animals, and has an impressive depth of knowledge about their care and breeding.
He was very kind to me on his live this week when I asked a question out of curiosity only bc I'm not interested in owning reptiles but I find them fascinating. He was generous with his time and knowledge knowing that about me up front and I absolutely appreciated it! Great guy like Clint and I have learned so much from them both!
Wow, thanks for all the kind words!
This was great Clint! I thoroughly agree about the fantasticness of a SD as a pet, as well as getting one from Reach Out Reptiles.
The colorful one is GORGEOUS it looks pixilated and they’ve both got stunning eyes. Such a cute face!!!!
To be honest I think Garret is the only SD breeder that I'll be trusting with my SD purchase.....If I can ever decide between a SD or a Burm that is
Garret isn't the only reputable breeder of SD/D and there are several other breeders that have locals of dwarf and super dwarfs that Garret won't acknowledge even though something like a halamahara retic only gets to about 10ft in the wild and the biggest I've seen is 12ft or Ternate another dwarf that only reaches about 11ft for a large female. D&M reptiles are an example of a reputable breeder that has locals and morphs that Garret can't touch in SD they are who I'm going with when I get mine, they are truly pioneering.
That’s one heck of a decision you have on your hands. I own a burm and it is by far one of the best snakes ever. It tolerates handelling excellently even with children (obviously children are always under close supervision) Burns are amazing snakes but even I am so draw to D/SD relics as a burm lover
@@finleywiddrington6599 Your absolutely right I LOVED my burm which is why I know it's a bear of a choice. Honestly not sure if I'd have the space for an adult burm which is why I'm leaning SD
@@demontamerkyuubi do a SD
The universe is conspiring to tempt me into buying a Super Dwarf retic someday.
They really are quite beautiful snakes.
when i worked at a reptile shop there was a super dwarf purple albino retic which i grew very attached to. She taught me how intelligent reticulated pythons can be and she seemed to understand the time at which my shift ended meant that I was going to take her out and handle her. I never grew attached to any other animal while working there as I understood they would all be sold eventually but her personality and intelligence had me feel like i had a connection to this snake. Due to the price point of the animal she stuck around for a few months and I was legitimately heartbroken when I walked in one morning and was told she had been purchased by the largest and most reputable retic breeder in my country. Such an intelligent animal being a breeder and not a pet stung a little lol.
They have a beautiful face and patterning! I'd never seen one of these, before. Thanks, Clint!
Thank you for this video! As I was doing research on snakes, this video convinced me to get in contact with Reach out Reptiles and get a super dwarf from them! Waiting on the last bits of it's enclosure before I go pick it up
Garret is awesome! He loves animals and want to do right by all people that get snakes from him, he wants to match the perfect animals based on your desires, needs and abilities. I agree with you suggesting they go to Reach Out Reptiles for your retic pets.
You should definitely do rats. They are such good pets. I have a few and they are the sweetest things ever. I think they are the best pet rodents.
"Most of the time we talk about snakes, now let's talk about snake food. Rats!"
Clint has said that video is in the pipeline.
If it wasn't for their short lifespan, I'd argue that they are the best pet mammal or even best pet animal.
@@TonyJL89 Yeah, their short lifespan is the worst part of having rats. It's just unfair that a creature with so much personality only lives 1-3 years.
@@ettinakitten5047 actually, when properly taken care of, rats can live more than 5 years.
I’m so glad to hear you say snakes have liquid urine! It’s been driving me nuts because I’ve asked people (including BioDude) what happens with the pee in a bioactive setup and I’ve only been told “they don’t have liquid urine”. 🤦🏻♀️ Both my BRB and my ball python pee plenty. Anyway Athena is so beautiful!
That's crazy! I've gotten nearly all of my bioactive setups for my lizards from the BioDude, I wouldn't expect him to say that. I'm looking into getting a snake in the coming years. Have you figured out an answer yet?
Unfortunately no I haven’t gotten an answer. I wish I could because I don’t like the thought of my burrowing BRB hanging out in urine-soaked substrate, and what about ammonia??
I love the BioDude and use his stuff too, I was so disappointed he doesn’t know snakes pee liquid. I asked Mariah (I think that’s her name?) from Reptifiles too and she also said snakes don’t urinate, although she said maybe if a snake is very well hydrated it will. It’s frustrating because I have 2 snakes and they DEFINITELY produce liquid and it’s like I’m being gaslit or something. 😅
Maybe they’ve never had snakes on paper towels at all so they just haven’t noticed the liquid, I guess? I used paper towels for quarantine and absolutely have thrown away quite a few soaking wet ones lol.
@@MaleficentHipster Haha, that's wild! That seems likely that they just haven't noticed it. Maybe I'll ask Biodude myself at some point just to see what he says. Hopefully things go well in finding some... more reliable answers.
@@agnusdeivotion they definitely pee so that's crazy, I started working at a pet shop a month ago and one nearly peed on me and and I was so surprised, didn't know they did that and you'd think people would talk about it more
My boa constrictor Imperator would always pee solid. hmm
I have no interest in reticulated Python, but a super dwarf....hmmm. I'm already a subscriber to Reach out Reptiles only for that Snek Discovery build. Hand down Clint would win if Garret was disqualified for time. Garrets creativity has me a fan.
So agree! I just got my second retic, a SD, and they’re amazing. My first is a stunted rescue and he’s still amazing. Big fans of these dudes.
I have never seen anyone so glad to speak of a passion except Nicole Tompkins. You two are on the top of the adorable host podium
Can we all agree that Clint’s reptile channel should be on the animal planet, like come on all of his videos are amazing. And because of him I found myself the best pet reptile for me 😊
A bit late, but what did you get?
@@Sleepy_Cobra bearded dragons
@@adamhhh5420 Nice
I have a SD retic named Batari and she's just got so much personality. So absolutely sweet and curious and gentle 🥰
I had that same "Matrix" moment when I was working for the zoo. I had been there nearly 2 years and "slurpy" (you could hear him drink anywhere in the behind the scenes area) our 16' 9" retic who was living there for over 15 years, and was 14 feet then. He would always sit motionless, and or shrug off the food offerings until 1 day, BOOM, he was awake, hungry, and took me by surprise. He ate 7- 4lb rabbits that day, and wasn't hungry again for 17 months.
There is a python in The Matrix?
I haven’t seen the movie, but I do want to.
Haven’t heard of a python in the cast.
I love retics but have never had one because of the gigantic size they get too. They are breathtakingly beautiful. I would totally consider getting a dwarf retic. I've had full grown bermese pythons and even they were getting just a little bit too big at 16-18 feet.
When I was 12 years old my dad took me to a pet store and got me a Burmese python. (My dad had one earlier in his life that was 14 feet) he got to a little over 9 feet and lived until I was a young adult, and he passed away. He was awesome though, on feeding days about a dozen kids would get off the bus with me and run to my house to watch him eat. I’ve always wanted another but have never gotten one because of the risk that it could grow to an unmanageable size (ground zero common sense) I am really glad to have learned about dwarf retics. I may just end up looking for one at the reptile expo coming up in my city
Shared on my fb page Super Dwarf Reticulated Pythons UK 🇬🇧 ❤
This is like a normal retic that stop to growth. They don't even look like adults, they look like juveniles having those great eyes
Oh my.. I'm sold! An ideal snake, for sure.😍
This is now the point in time where super dwarfs go from being a niche pet to one of the most mainstream pet snakes available! Mark my words, just wait and see! lol
Agreed, and as a future breeder, awesome
Finally, I've been waiting for this one! ❤️
Dunno the reach out place just kinda rubs me the wrong way
Great vid as always 💕☀️
As soon as you mentioned that video, I had a visceral reaction…. She was also keeping all her rodent racks in the same room, and didn’t handle it well once she was bitten either.
You mean it's just a python, but smol? Perfection.
Awesome video Clint. I have been waiting for this video since Garrett brought the snake to you 😍👍👍
5:40 literally my thought process watching this video
A long while ago I suggest you do a video on these with Reach Out…so glad it happened!
Link up with Brian Boas next….
These seem like great snakes. I love the patterns and the really sharply defined scale coloring. It's like a hex grid was wrapped around the snake and then each was precisely hand colored to make the overall pattern. Being semi-arboreal is wonderful you might actually get to see it in it's enclosure when it wasn't being handled. It also looks like handling actually involves handling. These seem even more curious than boas and move around more as opposed to being a lap snake. That's a win in my book.
Dat Snake was so confused at getting snootbooped
Thank's Clint! I fount the perfect super dwarf.
This snake is definitely going on my my list of choices if I'm ever able to support having a pet. Right next to the Dumeril's Boa.
My short list is Demerils Boa first because the enclosure temp/humidy range is easier and I can learn to keep that steady where I'll be living without worrying I'll end up with a dead snake. One of these or a Boa second since they are semi-arboreal and get to a nice size but are handleable by one person. Finally, once I've learned to read snake body language, gotten the mistakes with that out of the way, and saved up for a while, maybe an emerald tree boa because I don't think there's a better looking non-venomous snake that can still be handled if you know what you're doing and get them used to it early. That obviously wouldn't be the one being passed to somebody else to hold who wasn't knowledgeable in handling snakes.
@@CrimFerret Are we twins?? That's almost exactly what I'm thinking (although I'll probably change my mind a million times before I'm at the point where I can have a reptile.) I need to wait until I go to and finish college before I can have one. I actually have a list of reptiles I want to have, mostly snakes, that has about 15 species in it! My favorites are Dumerils and Common Boas and Super Dwarf Relics, followed closely by Ball Pythons, Emerald Tree Boas, and Brazilian Rainbow Boas.
Good Luck!
This video solidified my need for a super dwarf, so pretty 😍
Definitely going to target train my retic once I get one.
Me: Oh yeah I want one
Clint: “they are illegal in some places…”
Me: Damn I live in FL
I am super glad I found your channel. I have had ball pythons for four years and have been wanting to scale up, but a mainland retic is just too big (nearly 30 feet is just mind blowing for a house pet).
Now I know I can get a dwarf or super dwarf retic and have the bigger snake I crave.
My retics were mainlands and the chillest snakes I'd ever worked with. Got them as babies, tap trained and handled often, plus used a very strict feeding protocol (F/T only, separate enclosure, etc) and especially my female was a complete potato. Got tagged twice when she was only a few feet long, both times were my fault, and it never happened again once I fixed my mistake. I miss them so much - they were my babies.
0:50 my reaction: oh my god he so cute!!!
What amazing snakes! Definitely will want one of these one day ^^
They have the prettiest little faces!
i am such a sucker for retic morphs but the size has always turned me off to them. i am fully convinced i want one asap
I just bought a 1 week old baby, 25% dwarf retic.... He is absolutely gorgeous... Definitely looking forward to watching him grow... Plenty of handling, He should be as gentle as my other snakes :)
"the computer didnt make it" lol
YESSSSSS
SUPERDWARF RETIC VIDEO 😍!
I found out that the motley goldenchild morph exists in superdwarf (edit: via crosses with mainland retics) recently but haven't gone down the research hole because the research hole is where the snakes are. And going where the snakes are is how to end up bringing home another snake!
Edit: WELP guess I'm going down the research hole, where the snakes are 🕳️🐍
This was DEFINITELY worth being awake at 7am on a Saturday 👍❤️
I have been waiting for this since you got the girl from Garrett!
Oooh Athena is so beautiful wow 🤩 they all are but dang. What gorgeous patterns and colours
Firstly both snakes are absolutely gorgeous! secondly, I really hope you had an external hard drive backing up whatever you were working on.
This is so fascinating to me. I love the science that goes into selectively breeding these guys. It never ceases to amaze me the elaborate colors and patterns breeders are able to create across all breeds. A reticulated Python is my dream snake for many reasons but the idea of having a 20ft snake is definitely intimidating. When I have the space and time I’ll definitely get a dwarf or super dwarf.
Hi Clint, just wanted to say I'm loving your channel, and have been doing all sorts of catching up on it the last couple of weeks (along with Emily's.. ). I've just loved snakes since I was a kid in Liberia, where I sometimes caught and kept west African night adders which were pretty common during rainy season there. Recent denizens in my house include an eastern chain kingsnake, and a hognose. I just adore Brazilian smooth snakes ;), have handled several, and someday perhaps I'll have room for one. Anyway, the positivity projected in this channel is just wonderful. Thanks for doing this!!
I have a 70% super dwarf cross. He is one of, if not THE star of my collection. Great eater and a very good temperament. I love SD retics and highly recommend to anyone considering the idea.
Hi, how old is he and how big? Have you had him since young?
@@tommickleburgh9242 He's just about 2 and I've had him since he was a hatchling.
hey love the show I've been watching your channel for a long while. i brought home my 1st ball python this past September and since, my love and passion for reptiles continues to grow i just absolutely enjoy learning about all the different species of reptiles that are out there and also teach others of them. I too created a youtube channel however i am not interested in making money off it. i do not have a patreon and i do not ask for donations at all. i just absolutely love these animals and enjoy teaching others of them. right now i shoot my videos using the camera on my phone and that's only because right now with everything i am dealing with in life (aside from caring for my animals) right now i just cant afford to get an actual camera that records. I've reached out to a couple of camera brands to see if they would donate one to go towards education of animals and both times i was turned down. any who i just wanted to say your an inspiration and i do really enjoy your content.
It's called Insular Dwarfism if anyone was wanting to know.
I love this channel. So interesting and fun!!
Me: watching with one of my ball pythons
Clint: these are better than ball pythons
My ball python: 👁👅👁💧
It has pretty looking eyes, reminds me of those of a cat.
Shout out to Garrett at Reachout Reptiles for our Beautiful Anery Motley Tiger dwarf retic. We absolutely love her and we HIGHLY recommend Reachout Reptiles. Great Video clint! 🥰
I had no idea these were a thing. Amazing!
5:50 gettn back to the topic at hand ...
2:52 yeah handle them daily often in between feedings, it really helps, it just does... but if you can't (due to life's constraints) then at least not during sheds or when they wanna sleep
Hi Clint, I love watching your videos, have a great day 🐍❤️🐍❤️🐍❤️🐍.
How cool are these snakes! Very cool indeed!
I just put my lavender super dwarf reticulated python on hold at the pet store. I'm lucky enough to live in Phoenix a few miles from CNB Reptile! I'm just waiting for my enclosure to be delivered. I can't wait!
been watching your videos a while now, not sure why i wasn’t subscribed but i am now. before this i watched the eyelash viper video 👍
A puppy dog like a retic only small and manageable? That is a perfect snake!
i was just thinking if it would be funny if clint did a reticulated python video again but no way he would repeat the same animal and here we are, a retic video.
I do think this is a different enough retic to change the video, since in the retic video emphasizing how non ideal their size was key, and a video on their far more resealable alternative is a clear help.
Why would it be funny though?
This is like making a video about Chihuahuas after making a video about Great Danes.
@@modest1989 the coincidence ahahhah
As a bearded man, I love your beard, Clint! You look so good with it.
I feel like I'm cheating on my pet snake by watching this

I remember a few years ago when I was new to this channel and said that you looked high while talking about your animals.
You still look high, but I think this to be the case of actually being "high on life".
Love your videos and honestly you're the best animal UA-camr I'm currently subscribed to.
LOL
A few days I ago I handled my first big snake. it was a dwarf retic and now I'm even more in love 😂 he was really used to handling (reptile "zoo") and even a 6 year old was able to hold him (for a short time, the snakes was about 6 and a half kilogram)
I was thinking if I should get one of these this morning as I love the look reticulateds but they’re far too big for me. And just saw this video on my subscription feed
Clint : *Almost gets bit in the face
Also Clint : "It was AMAZING"
The one looks like bread dough being needed when it moves around
Man, every time that I see, and hear Garret on a video -- especially when closin' my eyes to just listen and/or pay attention to just his voice -- I do almost think and feel (I swear!), like Steve-O is talkin' to and teachin' me about snake lineage and reticulated python dwarfisms genetics/genetic distribution/diversity/responsibility, LmMFaO! ;) :P :o)
i WANT A SUPERDWARF SO BAD!!!!! I have a lav albino mainland right now, and once he is out of his enclosure he is so much fun!
