    Small, medium, large, EXTRA large!
    I decided to weigh some of my girls tonight, and thought these photos would make a neat montage... all normals/het, in size order from 90g up to 3013g! For those who've yet to raise up a snake from hatching to adulthood, this should give you a sneak peek of how much they grow. ;)

    Bobbi - late 2011 normal, who hatched from a boobie egg @ 39g (and dropped to 30 before eating)

    Phoebe - 2010 normal

    Rosalind - 2008 100% het albino, who's unfortunately showing no signs of ovy/eggs yet.

    Finally there's Mona, my newly gravid girl (entering her pre-lay shed right now)... obviously I need to get a bigger bowl for her. :oops:

    Thanks, and I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)

    Mona is a 2007 girl, so she's just about 5 years old - and this will be her second clutch, btw.

    Scratch that... I don't know if this is 100% accurate (since I bought her as an adult in '09), but my iHerp states her birthday as December 2005. So that would make her 6 1/2! I was confusing her with my girl Nerissa, who was hatched in '07.

    Thanks for the comments, and I'm glad you all enjoyed the photos! And yes, Mona IS a giant... a tad larger than usual right now, seeing as she's "with child." But even when she's not gravid (actually post-ovy at this moment), she's a pretty big gal - I usually call her Big Kitty, LOL.

    Here's a better shot of her from yesterday, comfortably coiled and starting to show that nice gravid ridge-back. :)

    P.S. Forgot to mention earlier, Phoebe from photo #2 is actually Mona's offspring... hoping she'll get just as big someday soon!
