SNAKE WEIGHT CHART

Lovin' My Snakes!
I found this elsewhere online and was wondering how accurate a tool it might be?

That looks quite nice for beginners. My Apotos was literally round for quite some time, but not fat or overweight. I recently (two months ago) switched her over to eating only rats and she's gotten hard as a rock like Lotem and has more of the normal look. It varies by individuals.
 
I agree with Nanci. It's only common sense though if you can see spine or the scales are sunken in to the side of the body - its underweight. And of course if the snake is round all around the body and the belly seems to be protruding outward instead of flat, its obese.
 
I agree also. However, two weeks ago I searched all over this forum for all kinds of info and noticed that many people don't use 'tags' on their posts...which didn't make my searches for answers very conclusive. So thank goodness for all the wonderful people in here who helped me!

When I found this chart, I wanted to know if it was accurate so I could help the Newbies of the Future to easily find a basic visual to help them, if need be.
