    unusual rate of growth?
    hey guys, i bought this boa a couple of months ago (4 months ago exactly) and she's been growing and growing non-stop! when she first arrived, she was as big as a lighter as in around 2-3 centimeters. and now, her diameter is around 8cm. here are a couple of pics i took :

    this was captive bred in indonesia and she is doing very well in captivity compared to my guyanan BCC, peruvian BCC and my salmon BCI

    Baby imperators can grow very very fast sometimes- but every snake is different. Looks like you got a little sprouter :)

    LOL. My friend bought a snake from the same litter too, and we feed our snakes practically at the same time. And mine could litterally eat his :D

    Well, we have some male BP's, all were hatched at the same time, all hatched relatively the same weight, and I have one who just grew like a weed! He is quite a bit larger than the smallest guy from the same clutch. :P
