Ok First I want to point out that me or my wife are not professional photographers lol so excuse the crappy pics I promise to get better.
Now I have had voldemort for about two months, he is great he is laid back very calm retic, never offered to strike me but I am always on guard with him I always expect it. When he first got to me he had a bit of fang face but with jay brewers help got that taken care of and now his face is great he eats like a machine great feeding response, hasn't missed a meal even when he was in blue he has shed once since Iv had him. didn't come in one piece but from what I read that's hard to get because of there skin being so thin, but it all came off no problem, he has outgrown his current home and he will be getting a new one in the next couple of weeks I am getting the t8 from animal plastics,then in the fall he will be getting the t70. The t8 will be ordered on Monday, but with out further adue here is some pics of him and all of his glory, I love this big guy he is treated as royalty and is very respected. In the two months I have had him he has gotten SO much bigger than when he arrived. and excuse my wifes feet in the background, I also had been playing gta 5 on my pc so thats why my keyboard and controllers were setting in the floor decided to hook it up to the big tv. :)

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say right at 4 ft kyle if not 3.5 he won't stay still long enough to measure him he's very inquisitive.

About the same size as my mainland male that's about a year old. Can't wait until he turns into a giant.

Very bright coloration for a normal. I wonder if the het blonde is influencing that at all... Hmm...

Also miller seeing the pics im am fixing to order him some more rats I am going to throw a extra small rabitt in there as well it just 7.00 at rodent pro. as well im restocking on mice for the ball python(kahleessi) and large mice for the corn snake(sapheria)

it says the rabbit is .50 to .99lbs think that would be to big or too small for my big guy, with my retic Im having a harder time sizing his food.

Probably too big for now, but it won't take long. That rabbit will be between 200 and 400 grams roughly, so use that to determine if it's appropriately sized or not.

had a really nice day outside I felt that it would be ok to get Lord voldemort outside for the first time and get some exercise he loved it, I didn't keep him out long because it was his first time out, but did get some really good pics Im getting better with my wives camera.

He looks very healthy and happy! Remember for his food all you need to do is get his weight and do a 10 -15% of that weight to calculate what he should get. I think a margin of plus or minus 5% is acceptable.
