Meet "Lysandra," 100% Het for Albino, 4 months old. I'm going to stick with the classical Roman theme here since my male burm is "Brutus."

He even still looks like a youngster. Great looking markings! He's gorgeous and I think I'm jealous...even though I'm in no way able to take a snake too awfully big! The RTB will eventually find a new home.

He is a looker!

Always getting something new eh? If I stop by once a month, I bet I'll see at least 2-3 new things each time it seems. When and where did you get this one?

She is a beauty! And the het influence really stands out on her! I would bet she will be a very dark with bright highlights adult.

Actually she's tiny! She's only 5 months! The picture makes her look quite large, but she's just a wee baby :D

So somebody hold her already! We need a reference picture...or set her next to a baseball, softball, soccer ball...something you know you will have for future pictures as a reference for how much she grows. It would be cool to see how much she grows comparing that with the reference item. She might just wrap around the bottom of a soccer ball say...1 1/2 times right now? In a couple of years time she will HIDE the soccer ball... ;D.

You should do this every two months to record her growth! Thant would be too cool!

Burms, if fed well, grow pretty fast. One I had grew to nine feet long his first year ;D

My suggestion would be every two weeks to a month... ;)

I record weight and length every time they shed. Reminds me, George shed the other day and I haven't got a new weight or length on him :o

Ok, I promise to post growth and weight updates as well as photos. This will be quite educational. My male burm is already a total pig. These guys just don't stop eating.

When they are young it seems they'll eat 24/7 and use everything they take in for growth. I think mine crapped twice the first six months of his life ;D

They never stop eatting! even when they reach 15+ft they will still be disposals! I only suggested every two months so the growth really stands out.
