a few questions
I have had Maxwell for a little over a month now. the length of her last shed was about 20 inches. I feed her 1 frozen/thawed hopper mouse every 5 days. I weighed her a few days ago and she is 235 Grams. is this a good weight for a snake her length?? also i was wondering if anyone could estimate how old she is? thanks!

Re: a few questions
It is really impossible to guess their age based on length/weight.
I am sure you could up maxwell to med-adult mice. They are usually about 20grams each.

Re: a few questions
ya i would feed her an adult mouse. 1 hopper is too small of a meal for a snake that is 235 grams

0.1 Albino Ball Python (coming soon)
0.1 Albino Striped Corn Snake -Lexie
0.1 Bearded Dragon -Kendra

Hey SnakeGirl4Life Its Snoopy!!!! Well Her Weight Is Not Bad For The Size Of Your Snake But You Should Start Feeding It Bigger Rodents.....And Petco Gave Me All The Stats Of My Snake (Except The Sex As You Would Remember) But It Was Like 8 Or 9 Months Old When I Got It And I've Compared It And Yours Is About The Same Size As Mine.... Hope This Helped..(Btw I Haven't Seen Any Utube Videos of Yours Anymore What Happen?)

Re: a few questions
Hi I'm really new to the Ball world having just gotten my first one three weeks ago. I have put my ball on a 5day feeding schedule and his last 2 feedings
have been two rat pups totaling 31 to 34 grams each time.
He is doing great. He is 4 months old, 22 1/2 inches and 190 grams. Hope that helps.

Re: a few questions
Just remember the length of their shed is usually a bit longer than the true length of the snake, sometimes up to a 1/3 longer. The shed skin stretches as it comes off your snake.
