He ate 2 small rats last night and some ground turkey today. Im still trying to figure out portion sizes and frequency for him I don't want him to get overweight but I'm not sure what constitutes over feeding for him.

He really seems to enjoy his evening showers and we've found it's an easy place to have him hang out while we change water and clean his cage.

Also, how often do they poo? He has made a couple messes in the shower and they were light tan and kind of runny, I haven't seen a solid poo in his cage yet. Maybe that will change when we switch to whole foods? I'll upload some more pictures tomorrow (sure wish we could still upload from tapatalk *coughs*)

Yes he should be much larger, 5ft plus at the very least. My Black throat is 1 yr old and 6ft long / 30lbs. I see hes in an aquarium with no soil. You know thats what killed the black throat right? I honestly cant believe nobody told you that. The black throat could have totally been saved. But please get this one into a suitable enclusure before the problems start popping up. They die pretty quick as you have seen.
