Pogie- That picture was without flash so that's a pretty good reflection of his colors. He's just about to turn one in a couple of weeks so he's got a ways to go yet before he reaches his optimal coloring. I'm really pleased with him so far though.

Re: Movin on up!

Growing quickly and looking great, can't ask for more, lol. How do you determine it's time to move up the feeder size? I was feeding Bogey a couple large adult mice weekly until he got loose and cleaned out a tub full of breeders. He's been on medium rats for a month now. Rivers is taking weaned mice, those leave a visible bulge but aren't much bigger around than her middle.

Thanks TnB. I increase prey size based on the snake's weight and girth. I'm sure you know carpets can take pretty large meals but I usually give mine meals that just leave a modest bulge. My coastal weighed 1222g (empty) yesterday. He's been on medium rats for about a month. His last meal was a medium rat and a chick. That was about 156g total. He'll get a large in the next few weeks. They're about 180-200g each on the small end. My 800g jungle ate a 105g medium rat for his last meal. That was his first medium. I'll keep him on mediums and my 425g jungle female will move up from weaned rats to smalls. The Bredli weighed 218g (empty) yesterday. He's been on rat pups for a good while now. I've got a few more of those to finish off and he'll be on weaners. I placed a feeder order yesterday with all the larger sizes they'll need. I'm not planning on feeding any of my snakes anything bigger than a large rat but the coastal and bredli may eventually need jumbo rats or small rabbits.

It won't take long Blaze . My coastal was 85g when he arrived on 9/2/15. He's 1222g as of yesterday. My male jungle was 31g when he arrived on 9/22/15 and he's over 800g now.
