    Does Abbott look healthy?
    I love my snake and I want to make sure he's healthy. His spine is poking out, is that normal? I know he's pretty young but I want to be sure.

    I notice the lighting looks odd, but he has no stuck shed

    He's on the slim side, but not emaciated by any means. After a few good meals he should plump right up.

    since you appear to be an owner that cares about the animal, i'm sure he'll get all the tasty rodents he needs:mouse2:

    What do you feed? Prey type and size and how often?

    Switch to an appropriate sized rat. He will fill out in no time. I recently switch my baby to rat pups and it was like giving her steroids.

    I plan on it as soon as the store restocks. Right now they only have mice and full sized adult rats. If they don't have anything, I'll try to see if any online stores will sell them.

    How much does he weigh?

    When you say furry mice, do you mean fuzzies? He looks like he could at least go to hoppers, at least until your store gets rats in stock.

    Yeah, fuzzy mice. I don't know why I called them ferries.
    I'm iffy about moving him up because the fuzzy left a significant bulge.
