Posted - 03/01/2011 : 17:31:58 Today I went out and bought some scales so I could weigh Kaa for the first time since ive had him. He weighed in at 220g, but when i bought him at the end of october the reptile keeper told me he was around a year old, so i dont actually know exactly how old he is in months... But by looking at the sticky weight-age topic thingy the average weight he should be is around 550g considering his age. He hasnt eaten in a while. So should I be worried? |

Hi, he looks pretty ok to me - perhaps a trifle triangular on his back but could have been just the camera angle.
Agreed and agreed. |

The not eating is normal at this time of year - Shahi, who is a cf10, born apr/may, refused again today, he seems to eat about every fortnight at present ... they are all different!
And as to weight, my Saada, who came from a very good home, I think, is just a tiddler! She's cf09 so she must be at least 18 months, and the last time I weighed her she was the same as Shahi - 400gm. She's a bright, greedy, healthy little thing too, not a thing wrong with her ...they are all different! |

Posted - 03/01/2011 : 17:55:29 what does he look like BE made a shape thing to tell if your snake is underweight, ok, or overweight, if hes underweight, his body will be a trianlge shape if you took a cross sectio, if he is fine, he will be a kinda square/hexagon shape, and if he is overweight he will be a circle shape can you see his spine? |
