So very mesmorizing...I could stare for hours, stunning!:gj:

Hes one stunning looking snake!:)

Can I ask a personal question? What is your feeding regime to get a Sept hatchling to 750g's in 5 months? (No criticism coming - just genuinly interested:))

Thanks

I feed 1-2 times/week and/or every time I see "the look" from my snakes. If a snake doesn't eat on Friday I don't wait until the next Friday to offer food again. I'm always feeding somebody. Every day.

Every snake is different. A snake that doesn't eat in the morning may readily take food later that day or the next evening. I have snakes (siblings) that eat their way to 2700 grams in 18 months while the sister is only at 1100.

I don't do anything weird or strange, I'm just vigilant. The faster I can get my animals up to size the faster I am going to have a chance at seeing a return on my investments, particularly with males.

That is one awesome looking snake!

Man, if anybody knows how to feed a snake it's Colin!

Super cool combo. Thanks for posting.

How in the world did you get 2 males in one clutch with a 3.13 chance of getting them?

Cool name and a REALLY cool looking ball python :gj::gj:

Simply amazing Colin! I LOVE it! How about an update on that black pastel pin? :please:

Not to butt in, but I have a snake around the same age & size... my other two '09 babies are between 300-500g, but the Mojave (who was the smallest at first) is now over 750! I don't feed him anything special, just 1-3 adult mice every week - usually two, but he gets three if there's a leftover. ;) I guess they all grow at different rates, although I have noticed the smaller ones are starting to catch up now.
