Hehe- I wish I could say they were little guys... not so much anymore. Joe is about 3.5 ft now... at just over a year (by a few weeks roughly) and Buddy is around 3 foot, slightly over, at a year and half..... Buddy is actually a girl, but we thought Buddy was a boy. All my snakes have been probed so I know for sure what I have sex wise. Buddy is smaller, but healthy, only b/c Buddy is a picky eater. Buddy refuses to eat anything but mice, so I end up feeding a couple times a week just to keep her eating. Otherwise, she wont eat, and I refuse to be as stubborn if not worse and make her go without cause she is being stubborn. So I have learned to bend my feeding habits with her a bit.. I just wish she were as beefy and big as Joe. Joe is a great eater... pounding small rats- never skipped a meal- cept for around shedding, but feed and shedding rarely co-inside. I am lucky with Joe.
I have another bp, and I still have yet to get pics of him, he eats like a pig, never any problems. I am lucky with Hershey too.

Great looking snakes, Jeanne! Hopefully Buddy's "biological clock" will kick in and she'll start wanting to bulk up some! :)

Have you tried feeding a mouse first, then slipping it a rat while it's still swallowing the very last of the mouse?
