Female sunglow poss het anery

Weighed her in at 97 grams tonight, and once I bring all my snake food and Bud and Draco to the trailer, I'll see who's willing to eat.

I have officially ordered two T12's, so should see them in the next few months.







She already looks noticeably bigger, and put on 17 grams since I got her last month. She looks empty so I think that's her accurate weight at least.

Well I measured her on SerpWidgets at 2' long, which means she's already grown 4"! I stretched her out and she definitely seems about 2', but I couldn't get her to flatten out against the wall completely. Unlike Cloud, she knows how to move on flat surfaces so she wouldn't sit still.

So guess my eyes weren't playing tricks on me.

She seems to be getting some extra padding, her muscles aren't as defined and she's getting a wide butt, so I think I'm going to start spreading her feedings out slightly to ~12 days rather than 10, may go every 14 if it's necessary. (May also stick to 10 days not 100% on that yet.)

She also is about ready to move up a size already. She's outgrown hopper mice but isn't quite large enough for small adults yet so I'll give her some more time before moving her up. She's not large enough to double up either, and I'd rather not feed her multiples anyway.

This is her empty, she's got a bit of splaying in the back like she's going to poop but it wasn't rounded or squishy on the bottom like it would be if she was holding onto poo. Roughly 11 days after eating iirc.

More pics! She's got a sausage butt from a recent meal.

This girl is growing a lot! I'm going to have to weigh her again after this meal, but it's amazing the difference ~3 months has made!











And today's feeding day.

She is coloring up nicely too!

Good looking snake all around!

She's probably not empty (she holds onto her poo for 2-3 feedings and lets out a big huge pile that would put my retic to shame proportionately) but I weighed her at 136 grams yesterday. She's maintaining a nice body tone, but has only shed once since I got her 5-6 months ago, so I'm thinking of upping her back to 7-10 days to see if she just needs to up her growth rate. :/

Still, I did have her eating 7-10 days for several months after her first shed with me, so surely she should have shed then, too? Especially after growing several inches. Maybe she'll shed and just suddenly explode by 6" like River? Idk. It's not bothering me too much because even when snakes grow a lot, they don't always shed reliably (cue River).

Anyways here's some recent photos.











She still looks to be visibly growing, so I'm not sure why she's not shedding.

So this is how her last feeding went.

I took her out of her tub so I could replace her paper towels as she had taken a big dump, and placed her near her vine so she'd crawl off my hand since she wouldn't let go of my fingers.

She ended up sitting there with the mouse in her mouth not moving at all with big dilated pupils.





When I went to put the lid back on her tub I heard a rapid "thwuck thwuck thwuck." I looked down to find she had struck at the air with the mouse still in her mouth and was now violently thrashing around trying to wrap around the mouse. >.>

She ended up succeeding but has further convinced me she's weird.

I finally got Nymeria to flatten against the wall by letting her climb into the trimming. She came out to 26", so she's grown 2" since her last measurement in November!





Belly.



Where her tail pattern is.



And what a full belly looks like 3 days later, just a rounded tail.

Amazing looking reptile CtB! Keep up the good work with her.
