I was quite amazed this year when I bought an expensive male Ball python baby (I know, I broke down and joined the masses). He weighed 70 grams and in two months I had him at 540 grams. It bred at that weight and now stopped eating for a few months and is back down to 470 but still breeding.





I was just amazed how much these can take and I guess I pushed it more than most that have tried..



So are we racing any snake or just certain species? LOL!

Another oddity, snakes have scent glands, hmmmmmmmmmm what are they for?
