That's pretty amazing.
Let me ask you experienced guys a question: When you get a snake that grows very slowly, for whatever reason, do you keep them in your breeding projects or do you not breed them? If you DO breed them, does the decreased growth rate appear to be passed down genetically?
I've noticed that all my Hondurans that are anery or hypo eat less and grow far more slowly than my wild type Hondurans. I don't have a large enough group or nearly enough data to suggest that there may be a link between those mutations and eating and/or growth rate. Just curious what you pros have observed.
