Just an update
Woo it's summer (well for school anyways)!! My parents were right, it does go by pretty fast, I'll be graduating year after next. Kind of disappointed :(
But I'll still have my pets *cough herp-family cough* with me! Dannie has grown so well, at a nice pace I believe. I fed her last Saturday and today she is 506g, and according to the measuring app on serpwidgets.com, she is almost exactly 3 feet now. I'd like to say she's around 5-6 months old considering when I purchased her (January this year; she looked like a hatchling then) but who knows.
I've been keeping her in a sterilite underbed tote measuring 34.75"x16.5"x6". I think this is a good size tub now; should she be fine with this size from now on (speaking in general terms of BP growth) or will she definitely need bigger?
Edit: OH, and I meant to add this: she's been feeding on small rats weekly now. I've read that some breeders and owners feed their snakes weekly, but smaller feedings. I had considered doing this and when she starts eating small-mediumish sized rats, could I just stay with that size and feed those weekly?
On a side note, had a scary dream that my female leopard gecko had eggs last night :oops: When I woke up I immediately ran to her tank but everything was fine... I have some weird dreams.

Great update. Glad things are going so well for you :gj:

Thanks :) I'll have to get her outside for a couple pictures today, the sunlight always makes the colors stand out and it's so nice out.

I think that's just about the size of my tubs and it's plenty big. If I'm remembering right, my tubs are about 3 feet by 18 inches wide. I'm guessing they are just about the same, if not the very same.

Oh alright, thanks! I thought it was a pretty good size but wanted to be sure.
