Same! It's always a rare but nice treat when I get to catch him drink! Usually he stops as soon as I get my camera ready or moves out of focus haha

Not sure where the gender question came from but yes, Tapioca is male lol
He's currently 624 grams and almost 2 years old :)

Not trying to be offensive at all but it's a shame that just asking if a snake is a boy might be misinterpreted in today's society. I only asked bc he looked big and I thought he could be a female ball python bc they get bigger on average. I have met someone who thought they had a male but later in life found out it was a 1700 gram female. That's all. Pretty handsome guy.
Also I asked bc in several post you referred to him as a boy. Like you said something like basking boy day and more shots of the boy in the pictures you shared. And some other post that I can't remember at the very top maybe your first post you referred to his gender.

Aw relax friend! The question just gave me a chuckle because it seemed random since Tapioca didn't look that big to me for a male his age. Don't worry I don't think anything bad about it, no misinterpretation! Just amused :)
As for Tapioca, I doubt I was accidentally sold a female since Royal Constrictor Designs/Garrick Deymeyer is a highly reputable breeder. I did get Tapioca when he was 9 months old, which he was fed adult mice prior but I was lucky and had him transition to rats fairly quickly. The rat diet has definitely been giving him growth spurts! Mind you, I've only had him for a year but it's been fun watching him grow :)
Re: Tapioca Progression Thread!
For reference, my girl is about the same size and only a year and 3 months. We got them around the same time, too. It'd probably be more accurate to compare their growth via how much they weighed at a certain age, though.

I swear it still feels like we just got our babies a couple months ago! Can't believe how long it's actually been and how much they've grown since!

Thank you! He really is! He's been getting so nice and big that he's even more chill than before! I guess he's deciding he's a big boy now and doesn't mind anything anymore lol.

Re: Tapioca Progression Thread!
Omg your setup is so nice! And his colours, amazing... Hate when I love some morphs, then look at the photos of adults and it looks so dull... This one is amazing :):)

Thank you so much! He's holding onto his colors pretty well so far, especially under the right lighting! It will be interesting to see how they change as he gets older.

Thank you so much! He certainly has become a big boy these days! He's just shy of 800 grams now and I'm happy he's still keeping some of his purple/grays! They really stand out against green backgrounds <3
