Buddy the Burm Updated Pics

At 9 months old, Buddy is already pushing 4' long and a little over 800g in weight. He's 1/2 dwarf burm, so I'm expecting a 7' snake in the end. His father was about that. The breeder said he'd get long really quickly and then add the weight later; seems to be coming to fruition; he's growing SO fast. These pics don't show his really pretty coloring at all.

He has quickly become one of my favorite snakes. Any time I go near his cage he comes quickly to the front of the cage wanting food. "Feed me!" I learned that the hard way once:

That was my mistake, not his. He just had a funny way of pointing it out :)

Thanks, Olivia. Don't tell my wife, but I'm already thinking Buddy's going to need a girlfriend some day. :)

Real quick update on Buddy. Just turned a year old and pushing 5'. Still awesome.

Yes, he sure is. I just love him. You should see him wolf down medium rats! Holy Cow!

No, I'm not! The breeder said to expect him to shoot out to 6' really quickly, and then slow his growth and begin to fill out more, width-wise. His dad was about 7' or so. I'm fine with whatever. :) And thanks, I think he's awfully cute also.
