Episode 122: Make Retics Great Again | The Retic Market and Will It Stabilize?

After a month-long break, The Retic Lounge is back and kicking off 2025 with a thought-provoking discussion on the future of the reticulated python market!  

We start by reflecting on the highlights and achievements of 2024 for The Retic Lounge—what a year it’s been! From groundbreaking interviews to our TRL Book Club series, we celebrate the moments that made an impact.  

Then, we dive into the current state of the reticulated python market, starting with the Mainland Market and how its fluctuations could shape the Super Dwarf and locality markets. With insights into trends, challenges, and opportunities, we provide actionable advice for keepers, breeders, and enthusiasts alike.  

Finally, we share our predictions for the retic market in 2025. Will it stabilize? Can we make retics great again? Tune in to hear our take!
