Retics and olives are very much in the latter category! But yes, always nice to get something down them.
And thanks all for the comments. He really is a stunner and I'm stoked to have a retic in the collection at last.
One thing of interest is how an SD retic is so clearly 100% retic in looks and attitude. They don't know they're not 20' +! But yet the growth rate is so different - mine is very nearly 1 yo (born 30 May) and is only around 20".
Oh and I have big plans for his Viv so keep and eye out for photos if I manage to pull off what I hope to.
