    Need experienced input from breeders.

    I made a trade on June 26th for 2 female ball pythons. I was sent pics on the 25th (of the one i have questions about) She was on the scale and weighed 1529g. When I got her home I put her in the rack so she could acclimate for 3 days she just layed in her waterbowl. A week later I weigh her she was at 1767g. I notice a couple days later she was going into shed so I left her alone again. On the 17th she shed and when i pull her out I was like damn she looks bigger. So I throw her on the scale again 1997g. Have no idea why? She was not fed as when i offered her food the week after she got here she refused. Now im a NOOB so I asked some advice. What would cause the drastic weight gain? Mind you I saw no football at anytime during this. She just got all around bigger.

    Thanks in advance for your insight.

    I was told by friends on the phone to put a male in with her so I put the only male I had close in and that was my 447g Bee and if you look at my images It will show you what I woke up to.

    lol you got a horn dog, I hope you only had the bee cause he now needs to go though the QT agains with the new snakes. I waited my minium 30 days ( with a shed,poop and eating at least 3-4 times during that time so I know they got all working parts lol)
