Re: Snake too fat?

It's a tiny bit chunkier than mine, but definitely looks healthy. I wouldn't worry. You can usually tell if they're too fat because either...

a) they have trouble climbing, or
b) you can see the scales separated and the flesh is visible underneath (due to bloat)
c) or both of the above

I didn't even mention this earlier, but you have one ball python and its a full genetic stripe? Cool. I have a few genetic stripes myself.

Yes, only one as of right now and she is full . I'm going to get another one sometime this summer. Although, I can't decide between a sterling or gargoyle.
