She's pretty, and looks to be in good health, not too fat or skinny.



I suggest trying to feed her 2 - 3 large rats every 10 - 14 days for the next month or so and then maybe keeping feeding down to every 14 days. I feel like a 6-footer should be eating more than just 1 lrg rat during that time.



Some people say there are large, ex-lrg, ex ex-lrg, etc..., but I say the rat's either large or it ain't, period.



If you increase amount per feeding & still get too concerned about her roaming (if she continues) a hide may be the answer, but I don't push hides like some people do, not for burms, at least.



Catch ya later!
