    2 months later!!
    Well Finally I am home for spring break! And after 2 months I was able to see my BP again. Just last week he broke his fast, having not ate for almost 4 months. He didn't lose much weight at all. And I decided to measure him. And what a surprise that was! He was 32 inches 2 months ago. And today he is 41.5 inches long! 9.5 inches in 2 months that is incredible to me! I didn't even know that was possible!!

    Here are some pics:

    Aww, what a cutie!! :aww: It is amazing how fast they grow. I remember when my bp was only about 8 inches long, and now 3 years later she's a little over 4 feet. It's hard to believe she was ever that tiny.

    And that shows how efficient their metabolisms are too, being able to keep growing at that rate even without eating. Very cool :)

    :O No wonder he broke his fast. After a growth spurt like that, I can see why he was ready for a rat.

    Today was feeding day! And he ate again!
    Yea he isn't as fat anymore :P , but I'm sure with a few more rats he will be long and fat. haha.
    He seems to be a lot stronger though. I'm not sure why.
    I'm excited to see how long he is going to get. :]
    I knew babies grew fast but not a 3-4 yr old!
    The weird thing is he didn't shed for 2 months either so... that old skin must have been a tight fit! No mis measuring either. lol I am sure of it.
    Has anyone else experienced a growth spurt like this in an adult?
