Juvenile Head Size
I'm curious after having learned about the volta region BPs & how their heads are bigger, does anyone have experience with juveniles that have larger heads and weigh more than larger juveniles growing into large adults? I have a 6month old that has a head almost as big as a yearlings. Compared to a couple that are about a month older, they are thicker & about 50% longer, yet weigh about 100g less than her. Is she just a short fat baby or could this indicate her future size? She has a wonderful feeding response & is actually one of the most handlable animals I have now. She eats f/t rat pups & I have had her for a little over a month.
Am I just overanalyzing or could this mean she might end up a bit smaller even?
Thank you kindly for your thoughts & sharing your experience!

Re: Juvenile Head Size
Head size may be an exaggeration as I haven't actually held her next to any of my yearlings for a true comparison but I have held up to the 7month old pair & her head is definitely larger, almost bulbous.

I haven't had any experience with volta region BPs. But mine vary a lot anyway. Who knows whats in mine after all these years of captive breeding and various breeders.
You mention a bulbous head, What morph is it?
