    boa healthy weight?

    So I have a question , I have a 10 month old female BCI boa . I weighed her tonight and she was 278 grams. Is this a good healthy weight for her or should I try to fatten her up? She is 100% het sharp albino/50% het Anery.

    Full body shots might help? Boas, like all snakes, grow at different rates.

    Pictures?? They all grow at their own pace. She's probably fine, my male April 2012 is 261. From what I have read most recommend slow growing a boa anyhow.
