    Healthy Weight?

    My male is 2 years old and weighs 1014gr. Is that too small?

    He eats 1 small rat (70-80gr) a week. He has a good feeding response and poops about once every 2 weeks.

    I got him earlier this year and he weighed 950gr.

    Re: Healthy Weight?

    I have a male that just turned 2 yrs old this month. It's a Vanilla Pastel and he is 1461 grams. He is closer to 4 feet long than he is 3.5 feet. I've been very fortunate he has never skipped a meal even during shed. Basically 104 meals over 2 years has served him well. I woud say yours is doing just fine.
