Kitty the BP progression thread!

That seems pretty similar to my girl. She was about 22 inches at 6 months. She's 3 feet now at a year. Oh how time flies :').

Awww I'm so excited to watch her grow. I hope she grows to be a big snake at the higher end of her growth possibilities. Monster Kitty

I hope she grows to a healthy size and weight. To much or little is unhealthy and can shorten their lives.

Very true. But isn’t five feet still normal for a female BP?

Is there a normal for a BP? Just kidding. I think 4-5 feet is average.

I wouldn't worry so much about length. Weight is more important, but even weight isn't as important as body structure.

And trying to compare BP growth rates is like comparing blades of grass. There are just way too many to compare, way too many variables and comparing to others will make you question whether yours is too skinny, too fat, too long, too short, etc...etc...etc...

Your snake looks to be in good health! Keep up the good work.

Okay yeah that’s what I’ve been reading. I definitely don’t mean I want an movese
or unhealthy noodle. My statement meant more ‘if she can hit five feet I hope she can!’ I want her to be big and strong! But I can love her very well at four feet just the same. ☺️

Five feet is definitely the larger end of the spectrum. Don't be disappointed if she stays closer to four feet.

Okay good to know! I’m getting a scale next weekend after I get paid. I’m so excited to start weighing her. It’s amaxjng once I got her home and switched her to rats after a few feedings how quickly she started to bulk up! Looks happier and healthier and less ravenous near feeding day too.

Thank you! when I get her weight I’ll share it!! I won’t be disappointed no matter what. I love her so much!

I got to weigh her today I couldn't wait to get a scale. I think about it every day. So I gave in early hehehe



and of course I remembered to tare the scale For having hatched in October, is twenty five/six inches and three hundred twenty grams right on track for a female BP?


Also fed her later on today too. What a beast.
