Anyone Up For A Goober Update?
Goober the wonder ball python, (he was born out of a boob-egg at 15 entire grams) is doing AWESOME! :D
He's growing very slowly, but he very much loves to eat, and literally strikes all the way out of his tub for his meals. He's seen the vet, and despite the slow growth, he seems to be in perfect health! He's such a funny little guy, he NEVER balls up, and thinks he's the biggest, baddest python ever. If he wants to climb your arm, you LET him climb your arm and thank him for the experience.
Couple of pics:

Aww I'm glad to hear he's doing so well! He is so adorable!
Re: Anyone Up For A Goober Update?
He's a super cutie. I love agressive feeders. Wish I could get my girl to eat like that!
Re: Anyone Up For A Goober Update?
He even eats in shed, to date he's never refused a meal, lol! I definitely wish he could teach some of my other ball pythons a thing or two about dinner time...
Re: Anyone Up For A Goober Update?
GOOBER! GOOBER! :clap: I'm glad he is doing good for you. It's nice to see that his head shaped up and doesn't look like a big peanut any more...

Glad to hear he is doing well! My spider was hatched at 34 grams so he was small when I got him! He is also the best eater I got! Good job!

That right there seriously made my day. :D
Re: Anyone Up For A Goober Update?
Awwww!
He looks like a normal ball baby now! He was soo tiny at birth I couldn't believe he'd make it.
My smallest baby I've seen to date was 35 grams, and I couldn't believe how tiny he was. I can't comprehend a baby half his size.
