...Do you have a picture of this snake. An inch round, 2 feet, and 8 months old sounds like a seriously underweight snake.
I don't have a pic atm, I've herd that if you can see their spine clearly than the're underweight, and I can't see his. I don't think he's underweight. He seems pretty well proportioned. Like I said, those aren't exact measurements, and I'm not sure he's 8 months.
