Re: Apparently stunted and unable to breed?
1200 what long? Inches? Thats a big snake lol. Just kidding.
I heard there is no such thing as a stunted snake. They grow as much as you feed them. I don't know if your snake is at optimal body weight or not. I've always been more of a "does it look alright kinda guy." As opposed to the go by weight type but I think my method is best for the thinner bodied colubrids I work with than maybe the BP people who weight food items and such. If you up feeding frequency for a few months or so you might be able to get some adequate size on her. Who knows lol.
I will say this, I think that in the wild snakes breed via combination of age and size with age being more important than size. But given we can make a choice on size and risk its up to you if you think shes too small for breeding. Personally I wouldnt breed a snake I thought was small.
