Default Who has a fully grown retic or burm?

I've seen lots of pics and posts about people's retics and burms up to about 2 years old max.

However, in my short time browsing this forum, I've never saw anyone write about their adult 15ft retic for example.

I'd love to hear from you- age, size, set up, funny stories etc

Pics essential of course!!!!

You don't look totally on the ball expecting the worst and ready to initiate action plan 'A' should anything go wrong at all............

That's because all keepers of 15ft+ Retics have been eaten already!

Nice Pic Jay, very "Yeah I'm gay, but what are you going to do about it? I got protection."

I know Mason & Sami have a fair few larger retics, I'm sure one will be on soon to show some pics. On the story front, about the best I have is we (Me, Reiyuu, Mason and Sami) were dealing with one of their retics who needed some meds put down her throat. Sami put it in, and as soon as she let it go, the retic moved its head to one side, looked around and spat it all straight back out over the floor...
You really can see them thinking, and the look on the snakes face of "ewww, this tates awful -=spit=- ahhh, much better :P" was classic!
