Im in the process of "rescuing" an albino burmese python.
He is from a local pet store and is getting neglected.

No one will go near him b/c he is aggressive, and will sometimes bite. He has mites, and a band shed...with retained eye caps I think.
The snake, in my knowing is about 7 months old and still just over 2.5 feet in length, and only gets fed a mouse about every 2-3 weeks.

Being he's 7-8 months old, and should be at or around 5-6 feet by now, has his growth been stunted?
Im going to get him tomorrow, or sunday. I will most likely keep him, being I have room and feel awefully bad for this poor snake.

Any opinions on this?
