    Here are some of Zeus's most recent pictures. They were taken last night while I had him out. He is currently 36" long and around 800 grams. I think that he might be getting a little fat from eatting a medium rat every 10 days. So, I am reducing his intake to a medium rat every 14 days now. But enjoy the pictures.

    There is no pleasure in having nothing to do; the fun is in having lots to do and not doing it.

    I got him November of last year. He was only around 16 - 18 inches long.

    When you switch your BP over to rats they will grow like a weed. There have been times when I look at Zeus, and wonder when he got so big. i switched him over to rats when he was downing 2 adult mice on a weekly basis. When he got use to eatting rats, I moved his feeding to once every 10 days. Even on this feeding schedule, he is still growing like a weed. And he eats like there is no tomrrow. I can feed him one day and 3 - 4 days later he is ready to eat again. But I feed him once every 10 days right now.

    Well, I would let your snake tell ya when he is ready to eat again. When Zeus is hungry, he sticks his head out of his hide box far enough so he see his entire enclosure. And sits like this for hours on end. This is when I know that he is ready for more food. But if I was you, I would probably continue with once a week feeding until he is able to take a medium rat. Then I would go to once every 10 days.

    I really love the pattern, the coloration is amazing too.
    Looks exactly like Emroul's which she claims is pastel.
