Considering she came from this when i got her (january)
I am pleased with the latest two pics which where a couple of weeks aro since when she has gained a bit more weight
To give you an idea of size her last shed was 27" long compared to 14" long in the top pic.
For those of you that dont know she didnt eat for the first seven months of her life which is why she is so small for her age (15 months old) Until she came here that is and turned into a snake dustbin lol that will have a go at just about anything she thinks she can eat (incuding me LOL)

I think, and I only attribute this outcome in this case, that she has benefitted from being on her own. Certainly after just a few days of being in her viv on her own (she was previously cohabitting an rub with two others) she became far more bolshi and confident about taking food and since has turned into a real strike and coil machine. Her greed has made it easy to feed her up and get her this far...

Thanks Danny I am especially proud considering she was at deaths door originally although a lot of the praise should go to the man who had her before me as it was him that force fed her and probably saved her life all I did was offer her an enviroment that was her own and almost immediately she started feeding on her own and even striking and coiling which of course COULD be coincidence but I personally believe being away from the stress of living with two room mates played a big part in the development of her character and as such her feeding. I just simply cant wait till she is as big as Colin as she will be a proper looker.

Xena certainly has come along way in the time you have had her mate. The first pic reminds me of my Candy. He was super small when he hatched and even now is only around 18 grams.
TBH I do powerfeed her. Since I have had her she has fed every five days UNTILL she gets to a stage where I am happy she has caught up. I think she is getting there now so she will be getting fed less often (she wont be happy with that lol).
