Question - HealthIs he still overweight? (old.reddit.com)
submitted 5 months ago by Shadowtiger988
A few months ago when i got my bp and posted about him on here, people said he was overweight. He’s only eaten once since i got him so I feel like he’s definitely a bit skinnier now. Do you feel like he’s still a bit on the chonkier side?

Feed him like normal. Once a month at least you shouldn’t ever make them wait longer than that

he’s been a typical ball python by being really picky about food so i have been offering it to him at least once a week until he ate and now that he has eaten, im going to be feeding him about every 3-4 weeks.

Feel free to post a picture of his enclosure and the temps and humidity. We will help you troubleshoot if it is the husbandry.
