How Common Are Fat BPs Really?

[AbsoluteApril]

do you have a more recent photo of her? i'd love to see how she slimed down.

I'll see what I can do to get a new photo, all the beepers ate last night so it may be a few days.

I've seen some obese boas for sure, but can't think of any obese BPs.

first one that pops up on a google image search, this one: http://wheremyscalesslither.tumblr.c...e/135342936503

There was a user here that posted their breeders, I considered they were obese, I went back but they deleted all the photos from their gallery and threads. /shrug

I do agree though - obese boas are seen a lot more often. Body shape of a python is simply different from a boa and it's a lot more obvious in boas although I don't know if I can correlate that to mean it's more common as well. Might be though!

Back when the bp breeding boom was happening, I saw alot more fat snakes due to power feeding in a rush to get them pumping out dollar bills, but these days it's less common.

agreed, and this is a good thing.
