    Wow, I had totally forgotten about this thread. Luckily your day old post that had to be moderated by the bp.net staff brought it back to the forefront. :D

Feeding a meal of that proportion weekly cannot be compared to feeding that same meal monthly. Let's not jump to conclusions.

    That was her first rabbit since December 28, 2006

    If that's supposed to be some kind of joke or even funny, it's not.

    Actually, it wouldn't be too big for a Burmese Python of equal length. Reticulated Pythons are much more slender at younger ages than Burmese Pythons and African Rocks...therefore it shows a more drastic lump. To a Burm it wouldn't be as noticeable a lump. Retics usually don't put on alot of girth until they get older, and larger.
