Q. Is my kingsnake the right size for his age?
My kingsnake, Gilly, arrived at the pet store 10/12, I presume as a hatchling. They began feeding him with cut up pinkies. I purchased him in 7/13 and he weighed 85g. He's now 219g and at least 32in. I bought 100 hoppers and he hasn't eaten them all yet, so I'm still feeding him f/t hoppers, about 2 per week. I have some pinkies that a friend gave me after her snake escaped, and I offered them last week with a hopper, to Gilly's enthusiastic approval. He got all strikey and active, ate 4 plus the hopper and was looking for more.
He's my first snake, and I'm really enjoying him. He's very docile and easy to keep; always eats and sheds completely.
Hopefully I attached this photo correctly.
