I was reading some old threads about ball python growth. I know there is no set growth pattern for snakes, there is averages tho. I was wondering has anyone done any test to see how much snakes gain compared to the food they eat. Ex: a 700 gram Bp eating a small rat(80 grams) should on average retain 10% of the meals weight.
This might not even be possible just Wondering if anyone has tried to see if it is possible to measure how much %of a meal a snake retains after digestion and defecation is complete.
If you or someone has done this would live to hear the results complete or theory
