Is he possibly dwarf, or just a smaller male?
I know size can vary, based on a lot of factors like genetics and feeding... but I am wondering what different sizes are people's adult males?
My male, Manny, has only been with me since last September so I really don't have a solid idea of how he was brought up. I was told when I bought him that he was 3.5-4 years old, and 10 feet long. I haven't been able to truly accurately measure him, but my attempts have given figures not far off that base for length. I did weigh him today, and he is 15.1 pounds.
Does Manny fall within the range of "normal" adult male size? Everything I am reading says that 10 feet is a dwarf length, whereas normal males average 12-14 feet? And while he doesn't look visually thin anymore (I wasn't able to weigh him when he wasn't eating for months, but he definitely dropped some weight that he has now put back on)... I just feel like that's such a low weight compared to other figure I've heard.
His size is not an issue to me, as long as he's healthy... I'm really just curious (: I have considered breeding him eventually, but we'll see if that venture ever comes to be.
