shes growing like a weed

bofore anyone says anything she is on a 7 day feeding. the rat pups around me are around 10 grams and super small. so i am feeding her weened rats and they are all around 41 grams. i should of weighed her tonight before i put her away because she did poo for me but she is going into blue which i just saw when i picked her up so i wanted to make it quick. when i got her she was 110-130 grams and had some stuck shed on her back. now about 2 months later she is 200-220 grams and her last shed was perfect. here are a few updated pictures of her. i think the 7 day feed is working well. today is day 6 so she would get fed tomorrow but i may hop to a 10 day since i am feeding her 41 gram rats.

enjoy the few pictures.


when i first got her



that tank is 12 inches deep

here is her tonight and 2 nights ago.


you can still see her spine in this one so this is what makes me think the 7 day feed is fine.....

the table from inside lip to inside lip is 20 inches.

enjoy i know everyone loves pictures, and i couldnt be happeier with this snake.

Re: shes growing like a weed

My dumerils grows super slow but i guess thats cause i dont power feed him like my ball pythons. But i gotta say my dumerils is my favorite snake that i have even over the ball pythons.

Re: shes growing like a weed

some people say they grow slow some people say they grow fast. i dont think she is over weight by all means. you can still see her spine perfectly fine. yeah the size of the weened rat i am feeding her may be a tad too big. i am feeding her 20% of her body weight as opposed to 10-15% but she will stay on the weened rats for a while

Beautiful Dum! Obviously you're doing things right as far as this snake is concerned.
