Hi again its been a short while, I only seem to post when im getting a new addition, well I am again but I'll save that till I get it home.
What I was wondering was how you all measure the length of your snakes as its something id like to keep records of like I do the weights
Thanks in advance |

| With some difficulty lol. I normally just use a string, run it down their body to their tail then just measure the string? Works for me. Or you can get one of them tape measures, like the flexible ones if that makes sense lol... Also with my biggest boy I let him slither along the wall, he normally straightens out which allows me to get a measure. |

| Think I'll stick with the string. Sounds like too much faffing about. Lol |

| I measure mine (roughly that is) as they often slither parallel down my leg when I have them out. Obviously all snakes won't do it. Just how I do it. |

| Just tried that widget to measure Ra. Quite easy to use. Ra is now 2 feet 6 inches. |
