    Does this snake look smaller than she should be?

    I got her as a yearling in 2017, so she should be somewhere in her fourth year of life. She ate extremely inconsistently for no reason I could ever figure out, and I tried everything. One completely random day in 2019 she woke up and decided to start pounding rats, we haven't had a problem since. She's eating a medium f/t weekly as of right now. I kinda expected her to be quite a bit larger at this point, and now I can't decide if I'm feeding her appropriately. She's only 4.5lb but also full of poop at the moment. I see pics of people with much larger 4 year old shorties but I also know that a lot of people overfeed them. Does she look healthy to you guys? Should I bump up her rat size or maybe feed her a little more often since she ate so badly in her youth?
