Even then, their food goes for energy (activity), not just growth. Commercial breeders do tend to feed on the light side, but either way, once snakes start eating bigger prey, they grow plenty fast.
    Oh that's a relief. Someone in another reptile group showed theirs at what they thought was around the same age as mine and it was huge, though they evidently misremembered when the pic was taken so the snake was undoubtedly older. Also that's on me for trusting a 10 second Google search.

    Thanks for easing my worries. You know how it is when there's a new snake in the house.
