Btw...all three of these females were 2008 babies...and looking back at the yb's feed record...she was actually on a 7-10 day schedule until her second winter. I tried packing on a little more weight going into that winter and got carried away...didn't help that others were starting to go on their winter fast's...she was the last to go on a fast, so she got lots of leftovers...

So...they can gain weight fast and obviously store fat...I could feel it on her. She has still gained weight from last year but is more lean...hopefully she'll give me some eggs this year....

Again...it was a lesson learned. Know your snakes. Take them out and handle them regularly. I couldn't tell she was getting fat just from looking at her, but could feel it...
