Rainbow is my new SunTiger female reticulated python progression.

Does she look fat to you? I think she looks healthy but not fat.

Perfect name for her! :sweeet:

Feeding today was kind of scary. She struck the grass before I could get the rat in her cage. I fed her two medium rats. The second rat she caught in mid-air. Both of them are pre killed so they couldn't hurt her. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d244264b82.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...beee8c821b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...83559733c4.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...775a9d83a2.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f65ec4ca34.jpg

Is there a reason you fed 2 mediums over a single large? Usually its easier to just feed one appropriately sized food item.

They were out of large today and my frozen order is not in yet.

Makes sense.

She would not have been happy waiting another 3 days

Most retics are not happy about waiting for food it seems haha. Louie my BCL is the same. He really LOVES food, more than any of my other boas.

That animal can take something substantially bigger than a large rat. You said she’s 9’ and like 18lbs right? A large rat is like a tic tac for her hahah. Even Gerald who is 7’ and ~7lbs takes jumbo size rats with ease and could easily take down a colossal rat. Those mainland retics can eat like nobody’s business. Phyllis is about the same size and a colossal rat from big cheese doesn’t even leave a lump anymore
