Is he fat? I would say he is loaf shaped and doesn't have any 'love handles' but I don't know. The female I have is slightly younger but much much slimmer. |

It's hard to tell if he is fat from close up pictures, especially with him curled up so comfy looking He's a handsome chap. |

Not sure, as Moppet says difficult to tell with him curled up - he does look a bit on the wide side but it may just be that he is a big snake. I would be interested in what people say though, I am always so nervous about Corno getting overweight, but at the same time she is growing steadily lengthways and is only 19 months old so I don't want to deprive her of food she needs to grow healthily lol!
Lovely colouring :) |

WOWEE!what a big fella.We have two rescue corns that were nearly starved to death-but now they just eat and grow and seem none the worse for their early hardship...they are bigger than others we know the same age.Do different morphs/strains reach different sizes? |

I am only new to all this, but SexyBear77 put up a great thread about how corn snakes grow their own way. She would be the best person to ask with regards to morphs etc, as she is a breeder, but this is the link to the thread

A few more pics, it's hard to get the whole of him in. Just for scale the hide is an XL and the viv is 1m long, he's in one half.
