So got my pretty little girl rescue snake a week and half ago, but was told a couple of days ago she's a fatty....

So today i accepted the fact she prob is. So she came out after feeding on friday and that girl got put on the stairs. Made her climb them twice, didnt take long for her to catch on. Am gonna reduce her feeds down to one medium mouse every 3 weeks. Aiming to get her down from 731g to 600ish hopefully!

Good luck with the diet/weight control/thing :) Tried my snake on the stairs.. she just kinda fell/slid down them before I caught her after a few steps. Lol I don't think I'm doing it right!

My fatty hates the stairs, he won't climnb them, he slips every time and starts wheezing bless him. I just dump a billion tubes in his viv and he's fine with that :P he's gone form 1200g to 1000g ish now over a year. Still a fatty, amybe in like 2 years time he will be 800g.



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3
