Does Pylox look underweight?

[Zincubus]

It’s hard for me to tell how large he is just by looking at the pictures but it seems like mice are going to be way too small for him anyways. Instead of going with multiple mice, try switching over to rats. It looks like he could handle at least a rat pup maybe even a weaned or small rat.

Regardless he doesn’t look underweight but if he has loose skin and the spine is showing, it wouldn’t hurt to up the size.

As you say we don't know exactly how big the snake is ... that said the wooden hide in the viv looks to be one of those pretty small ones ( not ideal anyway as the two openings offer very little security ) - suggesting that it's a youngster/ small Royal .. all that said - it could be an unusually huge wooden hide


From what I've heard recently there's virtually no difference in nutrition between mice / rats just more convenient to feed one rat than a couple of mice for the bigger snakes ..


PS - presuming there's another hide on the other side of the tank
