Arizona really is having a good growth spurt at the moment, she's only been on fluffs for the past 4 feeds and she's gone from 22g to 28g in a matter of a few weeks, hope she keeps growing well.

Ask me and I will tell you

It's great when their weight goes in the right direction. My Bob hit the 120g mark the other week and he now has little creases in his body when he's tightly coiled up. Baldrick tends to yo-yo between 85g and 110g, depending on whether or not he's decided to eat at any given time. There's nothing like the feel of a chunky hoggy!

Awww that's ace

Mia zoooomed up when she went onto fuzzies. She's deep in shed again now but she hasn't eaten in a couple of weeks, but did take a pinkie on Sunday whilst in blue.

She's only a few weeks older than Freddie but totally dwarfs him!

She's really growing like a weed now, up to about 36g in weight, feeding well every 3/4 days and noticed today she's deep in blue again, she just shed last month, doing well she is.

Nice one! I'm starting to be tempted to get a new baby snake, just cos it's so much fun watching them get bigger. Bob was already an adult when I got him so it's been a while since I've done it. Just need to find space for a new viv!

Ach you should, so rewarding watching them growing

She's not too interested in eating as usual for me tonight, probably because she's deep in blue, no big deal if she doesn't eat as she'll be hungry by next feed.


Edit: She took her fluff after being left alone, gone shy at feeding all of a sudden lol.
