She is a big girl, like the banding and the blushing going on with her. That little pastel is a lovely colour, and you can really get a perspective of the size of her with the little one there. Am I being daft or is she quite a short snake?


She is short and fat, also in a shed in this pic.

They tend to look fatter when they are short, but as long as it's muscle rather than FAT I don't see there being a problem with the BIG ones, just means they've had more time to grown to that weight and they have more available for when they drop a large quantity of it after laying. At least I would think.
