my adopted snake is growing!

StaceyLayne Feb 09, 2006 07:59 PM

I am so happy! The snake I got just after xmas from a teenager who rarely fed it has put on over 100 grams! He weighed in today at 418! (He's still needs to gain more, but he's looking good) I weighed him after he took a huge poop! He actually no longer feels like a "bone", and has some meat to him!

I'm glad to hear that your guy is growing. I'm having a little trouble getting mine to take more than one item per feeding. She's still growing a little bit, but I wish she would eat more. If you've gotten him to add 100 grams in a couple of months, he may be well on his way to a normal adulthood.
