    Maybe that's why she is on the small side for being 3 years old.

    A snake that's taking in plenty of food & remains underweight with a deflated look may have something going on. It doesn't always occur to ppl that a snake can have
    worms, because they're eating reliably & it just doesn't seem like anything is wrong. Getting her stool checked would be on my agenda in the near future, assuming he
    has been accurate about her food intake & breeding status.

    I fed her just under a small size live rat and she took to it without a hitch. I'll just keep an eye on her and see how she does. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...2635ef9f9a.jpg

    I think you’ll be fine, like previously stated. And a very sharp looking girl.

    Maybe consider a 30 minute soak ..

    If it is dehydration then it will instantly look ( and feel ) better ..

    Just a thought ..

    Soaking seems more prevalent over here in the uk , for some reason .

    Beautiful adult albino! I really hope the girl I have now holds that contrast.
