    Weight concern
    I'm new to this forum and new to this phone, which I think I've finally figured out, lol. My question is whether or not my new snake is underweight, Mokos 22" long and ten months old, he's 212grams and I've been told this is normal. He's a awesome snake who I've bonded with and want the best for. He gets fed every seven days and hasn't missed one yet, he's ate three times, pups, and seems very content, with his personality quirks of course:-) I'd appreciate any advice.

    What's the weight your males reach before your put them to seven days?

    We have a few 10 month old males that are all 500+ grams. Could be the size of food your feeding or frequency. We feed every 7 days for every snake we have no matter the size. If we fed twice a week i would be exhausted with working a full time job and feeding that often!

    Does seem on the small side to me as well. And you are *sure* s/he is 10 months old? Have you had them for this long?
    Also, did you get it from a pet store by chance...?

    Pictures would be helpful!
