Re: Tips for a fussy, pissy retic? (pics)

Looks normal to me. Retic locales vary greatly in colour.

To the OP do you use a hook? Hook training a retic can be very useful especially once she grows.

Try not to restrain her when you hold her. When she just turns around and bites like that it's most likely cause your holding her back from movement and she feels captured or in danger especially her being wild and all. Let her just glide more and for short periods she should improve. But don't expect an extremely docile snake some just don't calm down, depends on the individual .

With feeding I couldn't give you too much advice never see a retic with a feeding problem lol but remember she's a wild animal. She just needs to gain your trust. Try splitting a prekilled rats head and leave it to see if she takes it. Stunning can work too.

Whatever you do that's nice retic I wish you the best of luck in turning her around
