    I don't post very often, but wanted to share some pics of some big females.

    "Gigantor" Normal. She laid 12 eggs last year. Bred to a bumblebee this year, about to go into a pre lay shed.

    3900 grams!!!!

    Good grief how do you even lift her! I've got one sitting at about 2900, and she's almost too heavy for me to lift alone. Of course, I'm sure having arthritis doesn't help but still!

    What an incredible snake. I wonder if I'll ever have one that big?

    Yea, she's a big girl. I have to keep her in a tub halfway down the rack. She got heavy constantly pulling her out of one of the higher tubs.

    Every female has a chance to get that big, it's just a matter of how they are raised. This female was originally a CH that someone bought as a pet. They had her for years (never bred) and gave her up to a local pet store. I picked her up in 2009. It also helps that she only goes off feed from ovulation to a week after laying, she's an absolute pig the rest of the year.
