    Surprise female weight?

    I just recently started keeping written records of my snakes, including sheds/feeding schedule/weight/etc. I weighed my new girl, who I hadn't weighed in two months. She surprised me with a near 1800+ grams! Her body proportions are a bit odd compared to my other females, so I didn't think she was any where close to that. I'm still going to hold off on breeding her until November, I can't wait to see how big she will be then. I'm hoping to get a nice big clutch, but this will be her first so I'm not expecting much.

    Have you ever been surprised when you've weighed any of your snakes? xD

    Don't underestimate her! My girl gave me 8 big fertile eggs on her first clutch, and she was only 1500 when I started pairing her.

    I'll be buying a proven lesser at the end of the month, who I hope to pair her with. I would love it if she gave me a nice clutch of babes! I'm hoping for at least one female lesser for a hold back.
