I've been feeding my Dumeril pretty regularly and am just upgrading her to a medium rat a week for a 1.5 - 2 year old DUM. Now I saw a picture of a 2 year old DUM a post down or 2 and using the hand as a guess it looks significantly smaller than mine. This got me wondering wether or not I was over feeding. Last year she went off feed for 2 months or so and then started eating regularly again. She's refused food if it's too small too in the past so I didn't think she would eat if she didn't need too.

She's a little over 4 feet in length now and a nice thickness to her. I'll add a picture when I get a chance.
