Wow, Cleo sure is a long girl! I knew she was long relative to the length of the viv, but I've now confirmed it with Serpwidget. Since I already had her in the clear critter keeper while I did a thorough poo search of her viv, I decided to snap a pic with a ruler. It's not the most artistic, but I was able to use it. It still shows what a pretty girl she is.
The ruler is 4 inches long.
Length of snake:
Straight: 1 feet, 4.84 inches
Curved: 1 feet, 4.98 inches
Nerdy details:
Snake is 3451.66 pixels long.
Ruler is 819.95 pixels long.
Each pixel is 0.0049 inches.
She's eating well now. She still likes a darkened room and doesn't strike but readily bites and chows down, usually butt end first. I didn't take a weight today but her last two pinkies were 3 grams each so I'm expecting to see 16 grams at the next weigh in. Obviously her tail adds inches without weight.
I've started to handle her more and she's definitely calming down. I can't believe I've only had her a month. I let her crawl around my bed for a few minutes yesterday. It was her first trip outside the viv where she could crawl in a larger area.
I won't be surprised if she goes into shed soon. It's about time for it, but it happens when it happens.
