Shesha's progression thread :) (pic heavy)

I have decided to start a progression thread for Shesha. He has grown so much just in the two months I have had him. I can't wait to see him grow into a beautiful adult snake. ^_^

This is a photo from the breeder taken right after he hatched.

The day he arrived at home:

These are some shots taken last night, about two months later.

He seems to be thriving so far. When he came home he was 92 grams. He now weighs 133 grams and is eating like a champ. :P

Isn't it amazing how fast they grow? Since switching Atticus from hoppers to adult mice, he has put on 40 grams in two weeks. I'm thinking that's partly due to his latest meal, but still!

Shesha is very pretty :)

I usually weigh mine about once a month. If you really want to see him grow...start feeding rats. Get them off mice. Shesha looks big enough to eat rat pinks.

Thank you. :) They do grow like weeds!! He has been on rats since I brought him home ;) He was on pinky rats when I got him and even then he was a bit too big for them, so he has actually been on fuzzy rats for a while now. Been following the 10-15% of their body mass / width of largest coil and he is close to moving up to pups already. :D
