Mazikeen progression thread

[Starscream]

Tonight, I remembered to replace Maze's water a bit later than usual. Her lights were already off, and she was in her typical 'let me watch you from my hide' pose and not actively wandering, so I decided to just go ahead and do it. As I'm replacing her water, she came over and started drinking, and continued long enough for me to snap some photos.



(The rock's for springtails, they keep jumping in the water, so that's just so they can climb their way out. They float so jumping in doesn't drown them.)

Wasn't expecting that. I'm lucky if she even deigns to drink in my presence. I may change her water at night more often if this is how she responds lol.

Anyways, she now measures at 38 inches, according to Serpwidgets, which is 2 inches of growth in 3 months. She's starting to gain more weight around than length, I think. She's still lean, but getting that chunky ball python body shape in comparison to her smol little head :'). She last ate two weeks ago, and is so far still calm as could be. Going to try for one more week, then do a couple of smaller weekly feedings for variety.

Here are some older photos from last week, when she was still begging for a second meal lol.


(if i stare at u hard enough u feed meh rat, yus?)

And sitting on one of the plants she managed to murder in her post-meal rage.
