Peekaboo!
Man has it been forever since I’ve posted here! Just a small update for everyone, Dewey has hit 5’! Happy and healthy, I couldn’t be a prouder mama!
Here’s some pictures of him peeking out of a pillowcase while I deep cleaned his terrarium not too long ago. Enjoy!

Pretty cute- they do loves their "caves" don't they? (& don't be such a "stranger" 'round these parts, eh?)

Snakes are HARD to measure accurately...frankly I don't expect too much accuracy from anyone, not even from myself. If Dewey's shed was 5', he's probably NOT over 4' 6". You're forgiven...
I couldn’t get him to sit still to place some string on top of him tonight- let alone take a picture-but honestly? I’ll gonna say he’s probably around 4’. Stretchy a** skin! Lol!
Thanks for the help!
unrelated to the above message, I have 0 spacial awareness and bought dewey hides that seem about a size too big for him- but tonight he’s chosen one over his beloved log. Do you think he’ll be alright in them or should I order him a size down?

He'll be fine, but to make a large hide more "cozy", just crumple up some paper to stuff inside- That'll do the trick too, while he grows into them.
