how big should it be at 1 yr(hog)

[Derrick]

Just wondering if I'm feeding my hog to much? She seems a little large for a hair over 1year. She just started on small rats(100-150grams). She gets fed weekly. Once in a while she gets an extra meal rejected by my pythons or corns. I just ran four pictures through the snake measuring app and she comes out between 52-54". Her mother is 5 feet long I'm told. Below are 2 of the pictures i used. The tiles are 6" and its a 4x6 picture. These arent glam shots, She also right in the middle as far as color goes between her really light and really dark phases

Thx
Derrick

I think she looks right. Here is my male. He's 21 months old and weighs 1.969Kg. He eats 160g rats weekly.

Ours were a little smaller at a year old but I think you are still in the "normal" range. Here are pics of ours at one year.

I am basing that on almost all healthy 1 year old hog's I have ever seen.

I will take a pic and measure her on the widgets program and let you know...

Thx Het. I guess she about right then. I belive you've had yours on 100-160 rats for quite a bit longer than mine. min just started on them 2 meals ago. I'm thinking of bumping here up to mediums as my JCP of the same age are also eating small rats.

[BoidKeeper]

Thanks man.
Cheers,
Trevor

No problem guys..

Yeah i have had mine on the 100-160 grammers for quite awhile now. This snake is an eating machine that is for sure... She would eat untill she popped I am sure of it.. But still only feed her 1 rat every 7 days now..
