Usually if we have a slow starter we will cool them with the adults. This usually jump starts their appetite. This guy has always eaten a little bit at a time, but he ate 3 pinks last night. We do not use the runts of a clutch as breeding stock. We sell them as pet quality snakes at a discounted price. This guy is out of a very aberrant line and he did not appear to be a runt when he was purchased. He just has not grown very much. As far as size and morphs goes, we have not noticed any link between size and color morph.
