Yeah, all pits are unusually large as hatchlings from what I gather, and of course their good appetites keep them growing fast. The shop told me 8' for Ziska, although I gather 6' is more usual. She's now 16 months and 5' at least, judging just by comparison between her and the length of her viv. Shadrach's 9 months and about 3'.

Don't know why pits aren't more popular - they really are a breathtaking snake, and very easy to keep and feed - Shadrach took his first medium mouse today.

Lol - wouldn't it just! She's still in seclusion - miss her.

Shadrach says thanks - just as I was reading your post, the lad himself emerged for a drink so I grabbed the camera ...
