Nagini Progression.

I'm the worst mom ever. I spend so much time snuggling my little scrub python that I haven't posted updates on my Dumeril's in 6 months! Looking back, it seems not much has changed with my little peanut. She has settled in great and doesn't stress out the way she used to.

Still as finicky as ever when it comes to food. The only difference is that I don't stress out about that anymore ;) Her growth is extremely slow, especially when compared to her "brother." I'm certain that's simply because she eats so infrequently and Apophis is more than happy to scarf all her cast-offs. Nonetheless, she seems perfectly happy and healthy. Just small for her age. Here are some new-ish photos :)

Beautiful snake! Dumeril's always remind me of little red tailed boas.

Great pics, got some good colour on her sides, glad she settled down with you

Great photos! My female dumerilii is more than 8 ft long and my male is only 5. Yours?

She is still small, even for her age, I suspect. Around 200 grams and 2.5 feet long at approximately 14 months. I wish she was 8 ft long so she could just be my lap snake!

Have you had yours since they were little? Are they just super slow growers?

Yup, nothing wrong with a bit of slow growth if they still have good body tone (which she does). She'll get there eventually, even if she's behind the male for a time.
