When I posted this thread, and photograph of Kit lounging around with my snake it was never intended to be taken seriously we just thought it cute, especially as he spanned her entire inner leg. So he was 32" back then hehe cos its easy to take inside leg measurements. lol |

Posted - 15/03/2012 : 13:23:30 An easier way is to use this online tool. All you do is put something of a known length next to your snake and take a pic of them together and upload it. Something like a remote, phone etc.

Posted - 15/03/2012 : 12:28:36 Last time I measured Fea (properly lol) I set him on the floor and when he stretched out to roam I held a fabric tape measure on the top of his head, gently with my thumb. Then measured down his body..works with Slinky too. Slinky stays still while i'm measuring but Fea is nosey and insists on trying too see what i'm doing lmao but we get there in the end. |

Posted - 15/03/2012 : 12:20:53 I found the easiest way of doing it is slowly moving a piece of string down the snakes back until you reach the tail then lay out the string and measure it. |
