Obestity?

Lynn (from Boas and Balls) is who I get some of my rats from, and I have seen these guys in person. The picture is kind on misleading, in that the "chubby" guy is full grown and only about 2 feet long .... he is sort of an oddity. To give you an idea how small he really is, I believe the other one in the picture is a yearling.

Sounds kinda neat, but Im a magnet for freaks LOL
Any idea if it looked any different than usual as a youngster (was it apparent early on that it was "different")?

If I remember right, she said he was small but not to the point that he really stood out. He is definitely different to look at when you see him in person. She has not bred him to my knowledge, the pieds (and poss hets) she produced this year were all from het to het breedings.

Thanks Neil :)

So when you look at him, he basically has the girth of an adult but with a 2' length? I think he'd be a cool snake to have as a pet.....

Yep, thats pretty close. His head looks out of proportion with his body to me when you see him stretched out. It does not really look that way in the picture though. In person he seems to have more of a trianlge shaped head, but that may just be how it looks because of the length of his body.
