Tiger

Figured I'd post a picture up of our Tiger Retic we've had for about 5 months now. Super sweet boy, but man what a feeding response.

Re: Tiger

Nice! We have a platinum female that's six months old now. The only day she isn't "foody" is the day after she's been fed.

Re: Tiger

Nice looking Tiger you have there. The Tiger morph is my favorite of the tigers. All the retics I have owned had a very aggressive feeding response, some would stay in feeing mode for 2 days. They all go into feeding mode as soon as I bring the frozen rats in the house. Can’t wait to breed my female sunfire tiger to my male purple phase albino retic. It will still be 3 or 4 years before I can breed her.


Take care,
Tom

Re: Tiger

Its funny how much more intelligent the retic seems compared to the boas. Maybe its just the eyes they have.

Re: Tiger

Great looking tiger! My most recent addition was a platinum tiger and I've been super happy to finally have a tiger in my collection. Hook training definitely helps control the feeding response.

Re: Tiger

Nice looking tiger, I also have a normal male reticulated and yes. There feeding response is off the charts LOL. My biggest challenge is building a huge enclosure because my normal is not a dwarf but in years to come I would love to breed him with a tiger. But he not old enough yet, he's only 15 months old. I've also been doing hook training with him and it does helps a lot. Its shocking to me cause at time he would let me rub his head and he won't move still I stand up or walk around. But I never realized by letting this guy on the floor, how fast he is LOL.
