Unhappy poor Columbian

Believe it or not, this is a 6 months old CRB Epicrates cenchria maurus.
The guy fed it with one pinky every 15 days!...
Now i gave him 2 pinkies to help him start gain some weight.

There shouldn't be any problems as a result of his underfeeding if he is provided the proper care from now on. He should attain a normal size as well, just a little behind schedule Good luck with him :thumbsup:

Cute little guy, but yeah... he does NOT look healthy. When he starts to bulk up, do us a favor and post before/after pics. I'd personally love to see the progress that is being made. Good luck with him!

Poor little guy, now that you're feeding him properly, he should get back into shape in no time. Good luck!

It really boggles my mind...Why can't EVERYONE just give snakes the proper care and maintanence they so desperately deserve?

Nice rescue Greg, it's nice to know there are responsible caring keepers out there.
