I will try to post a reference picture soon. My girl was a runt when I bought her and would only eat every ten days ( nothing before). She also does not eat during the entire stage of shedding. She's long, but slender. I've always fed a little larger because she doesn't eat as often as I like, which is every 7 days for my other snakes. My other female would strike and eat whenever offered. She would take about three days for the lump to fully disappear. At the time, the heat was at about 84-86 on the warm end. I'm hoping she does not have any digestion issues. She did relieve herself today and there are always urates every 1-2 days.



I handled her this morning with no issues. Took her outside for about ten minutes. No aggression and I removed her from the cage easily. Hate to compare her to my other female, because the other is completely docile and an aggressive feeder.



I will try and post pics of her tomorrow.



Thank you for the help. I've owned snakes (and many species) for quite a while, but sometimes, one stumps you.



On a side note, when I first got her, she was in shed. She had a complete shed ( humidity was in the high eighties to nineties). Yet strangely, the tip of her tail had dropped. I had read that it could have been attributed to retained sheds on the tip of the tail. She healed up well, but I'm wondering if I purchased a lemon.
