Using the serpwidgets tool, and the known width of the door being 3ft, Twinky in this picture measures around 22.5 ft.


Medusa in KC, yes she looks overweight.

I recently asked Jay about his feelings on Twinkie being considered overweight. He said he could see where she would look overweight in pics but assured me she wasn't, saying she ate less her weight in food a year. (what kind of formula is this? I've never heard of it...)

How does Medusa look overweight? What are you seeing that I'm missing?

Something doesn't add up. lol

Twinkie = 23' and 370lbs
Medusa = 25' and 300lbs
(so each animal's keeper says)

How can Twinkie be shorter and weigh more yet Medusa be overweight? I don't get it.....unless both animals are actually overweight....
