Do you know how much he weighted as a newborn? He could have been a twin or a runt...
I bought him from a rescuer just a month ago, and he said the snake came from a reputable breeder. I don't have any info on the snake before that. (Actually... I just remembered. There was a second baby, which I'm guessing came from the same clutch, but he showed me a weird rib defect the baby had and said he was going to hang onto that one to see if anything changed. Could one defect affect the whole clutch?)

I feed him two hoppers every 7 days. I kinda wince when I say "two", because I've heard that called power-feeding, but he seems to enjoy it and looks so satisfied afterward. I have a scale, and actually meant to weigh the prey before dropping it in, but it completely slipped my mind.
