    Update on Skin

    She's getting fat! I've had her for just under a month and she's gained 200g's. Is that a lot? She's apparently 6 years old. Just over 4 feet long. I got her at 1700g's, she's now 1900g's. What do you think?

    She's eating medium sized rats every week and a half. When I got her, the guy said to give her small rats, but I got the feeling that wasn't enough. She would stare me down as I walked by her enclosure for a day or so afterward. She ended up eating a small rat and 3 mice between two days. I started giving her med rats the last time I fed her, she seems satisfied now. After she eats, she will just go to her hide.

    Re: Update on Skin

    Oh wow! She is looking good man!

    I'm beginning to think that mine is overweight (my newly aquired adult female that is [Riley]). I haven't had the opportunity to weigh her yet but but the eye she is fatter than that! I'm 6'1 and can barely fit my hand around her. I have fed her once now... I had to choose a prey that was slightly larger than her girth which was a large rat that she downed with no problem.. the rat was bigger than both my female breeders.

    Haha, I think I'll keep her.

    Thanks to all who left comments. Glad to hear no one thinks she's too fat.
