Hey, I'm worried about my little snake, a bit worride that she's getting fat :/
I know there's a threat about "is your snake fat" thread that's been stickied but I wanted a advice from other peoples.

Basically she WON'T eat mice, I've heard they're the best option for food so she'll only eat mice, we recently upgraded her to fluffs she's had two so far, she seems happy and high spirited but she's got a little line, like a bulge going all the way through her body

We feed her one fluff per week, what's the best option, feed her a fluff every two weeks or carry on with weekly and increase the exercise?
If excersize what's a recomendable exercise for corns?

Thanks in advanced

Yeah, she's on rats she won't eat mice at all

Pinkies are really just calories... when you start to feed more developed mice there are a lot of extra minerals and such... typically triggers a growth spurt.

Ah right okay thanks :D somebody else said it could be muscle? If it is why has she suddenly become hench just from upgrading to fluffs?

Can't see any problems. "Keep calm and carry on" as normal!

Looks fine to me.

She has flatish sides and seams to be 'loaf' shaped rather then round.

IMO if you're worried switch to feeding every 10 days instead of 7.

Hey I got a couple of photo's for some reason they went from being normal to like proper bright but you can just about make out what I was saying didn't get a chance to measure her and I don't have any scales or anything but I'll upload the picture

That may just be spine + musculature..

Best to post up a pic for an opinion. Info on current weight and length will also help.
