Despite the stereo type.....we don't like to keep ours like 'fat sausages' lol. We like ours long and lean, healthy. Some folks keep these guys obese....and they end up looking like pin headed slugs. I've seen some so stretched out that their scales are actually spread apart. Not healthy. It's not healthy for any living creature to be overweight. Take notice to any wild caught specimens.....they are most always long and leaner.
No sausages here ;-p
