The picture doesn't look huge at all to me. Cute little guy, though. Mine is of similar age. What is your feeding schedule?

Mine seems to eat a pinkie every 10-12 days. I was offering it once every 7 days, but the pinkie ended up just rotting in there. There doesn't appear to be a reliable time when it will eat......it just eats whenever its ready. Is yours similar?

Well, when I previewed the message the pic was huge so I didn't check it when I posted it. I guess my resize did work haha.

But anyways to answer your question, they aren't on any type of schedule yet. I do offer them a pinkie once a week, but they only seem to eat when they want to.
I'm hoping as they get a little bit older, they will start eating pretty regularly like my other snakes do. I get too frustrated if one of my snakes isn't on a schedule LOL.
