| It's within a healthy range, maybe a little on the upper side.. But it's like asking if a person is overweight if they weigh 15st... Before you realise you're talking about a rugby player. Every snake has a different frame, so if they're quite short and that heavy, then it may be overweight, but if it's a long snake then it might not be. If you post a couple of pics it should be easier to tell. |

Probably more healthy than my cb08, he weights about 850grams. He's a good sized corn, but diet is going slowly. Hasten to add I adopted him, he weighed that before I got him >___>
Edit: Weighed him today, he's now 926GRAMS?!? How?! He's being fed one jumbo every month and gets exercise every day! :O |

I think so! Sheeesh! Thing is, he doesn't look fat, he looks in proportion! Is it possible it's muscle mass? I mean, he pretty much spent 4 years of his life not coming out, he had hardly any room ( he was in a 2ft until I got him) and only had a log in there, no hides. Now, he has hides, tubes, a 3ft viv, is always active ect ect. I mean, I dunno if it works like that, fat to muscle? |
