Hey there
Hello! new member here 
I have a ball python and i bought him 2 months ago, he ate well and shed perfectly. But as i saw him this morning, he seems kind of thin, he's 444g and 71cm/28in. I fed him 10-15% of his weight but he's still thin, so should i upsize his meal?
Thanks and greetings from indonesia.

Re: Hey there
Welcome to the forum! Please read our sSNAKESs forum rules.
A photo would help us determine if your snake is underweight.
How often are you feeding him?
The prey should leave a noticeable bulge in the stomach, and should be approximately 1.5 times the size of the snake's girth.
