Through the years

I've had to take today off work so I thought this would be a good to do. Below are pics of our female normal burm at different stages of her life so far. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as we do
This first pic was taken after she had been with us for a small while and had started putting on a bit of size



This pic is a few months on and the size difference is noticeable



There was a good time gap between this pic and the last one as you can see by her size



This pic was taken almost 3 years ago



And this is her now



Thanks for looking

I'm not shrinking I'm just a hobbit . And these would have been taken roughly over an 8 to 9 year period

Re: Through the years

Man I love burms. You've got one beautiful, healthy snake. I'd love to have one but I'm not stable enough to make that commitment yet. I'm 99% sure I wouldn't need to cross any state lines, but with my job nothing is certain. But I can enjoy yours until the time comes! Thanks bud!

Thanks mate and its really nice to see she gives people in this community as much pleasure as she does being here with us. Hopefully one day your job will be more settled or the ridiculous laws that prevent the movement of burms across state lines will be lifted.

Re: Through the years

Dave,
All your giant snakes look pretty fit and I've seen in other threads that they seem to get good levels of exercise. Great job. I too hate seeing fat snakes. It's depressing going places (zoos, other exhibits) and seeing fat, lethargic specimens of the giants ( or anything else for that matter).
