He's lovely! As for length, the shed can be up to 30% longer than the actual snake. For measuring your snake, I would recommend this website: http://serpwidgets.com/main/measure
What you need for that is a top view picture of your snake along with someone you know the length of (e.g. a ruler). You can then track the length of your snake and the length of the rules and it will calculate how long your snake is :) |

I personally draw a 15cm line on a piece of paper and use that for reference, like this:
Since she got on top of the paper, I could only use a small part of the "ruler" but, I knew that each part was a centimeter so it worked perfectly :) |

If you really wanted to, just make sure there is loads of cover, and probably a paper binder to stop escape from glass overlap |

That's normal - he'll probably slow down a bit as we head into winter. Nice one Isoldael - must admit I've never got around to trying it out either, will have to get some top down shots of our snakes (hubby never takes them like that, *sigh*). |

Crikey, he' grown! you must be feeding him mice on steroids ! :-) He's looking very nice.
That's typical about missing the shed, they can be very sneaky, and pick the one moment you're not watching :-) |
