If he got a pinky weekly for six months that's 26 pinkies. IMHO, he'd be bigger than that if that were the case. I'd bet he was fed weekly for a while, then brumated for the winter, which could cut that total in half, or even fewer. But as noted, its growth potential remains.

Pretty snake, btw. Can you measure him? Buy/borrow a postal scale and give us the gram weight. Plenty of people on here can reflect on current weight vs typical hatchling weights. It's been about five years since i was breeding hundreds of them, but i seem to remember babies weighing around 16-26 grams at hatching, generally speaking. Is that close, Tim?
