You've had many hots (according to your posts) and got rid of them because of a close call. You got rid of some burms because YOU weren't able to adjust to THEIR behavior. All of this in 6 or 12 years....Now you think a retic is your next snake. If you get the retic it will end poorly at best. Please don't get the retic.
I suggest you read and comprehend what spix wrote. If you can't expect the unexpected from a dangerous reptile....you have no buisness trying to keep one.

no the post about 6 years was b/c he/she said to keep a single snake for over six years. which i was saying i have. i actually decided to pick the super tiger up last night. its just a baby, but has a bad temper. i'm gonna give it a week or so to get use to its new enviroment then im gonna try to hold some of the aggression out of it. hopefully after it bites me a billion times and realizes it isnt getting it anywhere it may settle down some. i doubt it, but i can hope for the best. And i was able to adjust to my burms behavior i just have never been a burm fan. not b/c of their attitude or anything. just dont think they are a very pretty or appealing snake. thats just me tho, but always liked retics. so i thought i'd start out with burms to get some experience with really big snakes that have some aggression issues before getting a big snake that has alot of aggression issues. and for the hots you are right i got rid of them b/c of a close call. reason being if a 4 foot monocale gets you then that very well is the end of you if you dont get to the hospital ASAP. if a 4 foot retic latches on then you just get a nasty bite. A 10 foot plus retic is a different story. But still less dangerous then something with strong enough venom to kill you with just a single graze on the skin.
