I was at petsmart A few weeks ago and lady was there with a ball python she was trying to get the store to take in as if it was a rescue or animal shelter. The store wouldn’t take it and I got to talking to her and decided to take it home. She told me her boyfriend had purchased it as a baby from the local reptile show in October if 2017, so I am guessing it is a year and half old. This guy is tiny. I’m not sure how many times he has eaten but I’m guessing not many. Since I have had him, he has eaten a large f/t mouse every 5-6 days without issue, so I’m not sure if these people just weren’t feeing him or what. Last week he weighed 127g.

My my question is really about his long term health. He seems fine right now, other than being underweight, but I am not sure if this will cause him to be stunted. Anyone have any experience with this amount of underfeeding? Under 130g at 1.5 years is crazy to me.
