Yafe - Albino Carpet - FINAL - Progression Thread

I had Yafe out for a bit today. He's looking great and really has become quite calm and chill when being handled. I'll have to post pics another time as I didn't get any today.

He's digesting even larger small rats quickly now. They are only about 10% of his body weight and CP's can easily take 15% + with correct temps.

I need a recent weight, but he was 795G dry two (65-80G rats ago). I'll probably move to medium rats soon.

Pics are nice but not essential...we know you're not neglecting him, lol. ;)

840G dry! Yafe is looking amazing and chill as can be. He's really a treat to handle now.

Still a great eater (except in shed) and great display snake. He's often out on his perches and after the lights goes out tends to "cruise."

Here are some great pictures of my miracle snake.

Excellent.
Looking good.

Yafe had zero issues with a 90G medium rat tonight. I am sure he could take larger, but this is the biggest rat he's had yet. Assuming everything goes well, which I anticipate, I won't be as careful about picking out a (smaller) medium next time.

Yafe looks bigger every time I see him. Let him digest for a few days and had him out. He's looking good. Getting that adult looking/meaty head and getting longer. He's proportionally thicker than he used to be, but still looking lean and ready to climb!

I did have a scare today. He's getting bigger and he was climbing on my neck and right by my ear and he let out a puff as he exerted himself to pull up my back. Almost had a heart attack. Haven't heard a peep from him, aside from his loving hisses when I go to pick him up sometimes, since we beat the RI. Didn't hear it again and he looks great and just downed a medium rat. I am sure he is fine. My bigger snakes, like Behira, do it all the time. I just am not used to hearing him do it.

Here are two pictures of him going back into his tank all stretched out.

I'm sure he didn't mean to worry you with that exhale! :snake: He looks absolutely wonderful too.

Looking great dave.
It always makes me panic and keep trying to listen again for that noise. But of course thankfully rarely happens again, fingers crossed.

Yafe shed almost perfectly. He had about 2mm on his tail tip that a quick soak and gently rubbing got off right away.

He's looking amazing. So rich in color and the iPhone camera doesn't do justice the peachy oranges around his neck and head.
