    Too small or no worries

    Bumble bee born Aug 2, 2014 weighing 400 grams was 200 grams when I got her few months ago. Housed in 55 gal 36 by 18 glass enclosure repti bark temps and RH are good and have been since I got her. Hot and room temp hiding places and large corner water dish moved so she can pry between it an enclosure for comfort and sense of well being.. Previous owner took good care of her was a exact feeder weighing the snake and it's food in accordance with how much, how often to feed. Just curious thanks.

    Seems small to me, almost a year old. Big enough to abandon the % weight for feeders and go off of the girth of the snake. Approx slightly smaller around than the snake is big around is ideal.

    Thankd. Honestly I think the lady didn't feed her enough or stuck to a strict regiment. I have been feeding her heavy for the past 21/2 weeks or so.

    I made an earlier thread about this exact thing. I have a few snake born last year that are now nearly 1000g and one that is only 290g (now) and born August 2014. Here is the thread if it interests you.
