Somehow or another, I missed the last post your burm pic thread, didn't have any new pics or measurements. So last night, when we had her out, we measured and took a few pics.
First, a little background. When I got her, she was 8ft and weighed 23 lbs. Pretty thin. Also reputed to be aggressive, had bitten the previous owners more than once. So they dicided she had to go. What I found out was, they had been feeding live, in the cage, and not handling her much at all. So of course, reach in, get bitten.
I brought her home, got her settled, and she took F/t right away, no problem. She has been here since February of this year, and has yet to even hiss at anyone, much less attempt to strike.
Her length now is 11'9", and her girth is 16". She weighs approx 70 lbs.
