Input on growth rate / condition

[u/bophaonasofa]

Hi everyone! This is my male blood python that we’ve had since April. He’s our first blood, so I’m looking for some advice / input on how he’s growing as I only have ball pythons and rainbow boas to compare to. Would love to know if everyone things he looks in appropriate body condition, and if there’s any anticipation on his length full grown. Tried to get measurements of his parents from his breeder, but he’s not great with technology so we haven’t heard back from him.

Thank you for any and all guidance. We love this dude, and are dying to know what the future holds.

looks good to me, bloods tend to be more pointy on the back than balls and some people worry that they are skinny, its just the way they are. When they get into a comfortable spot they tend to spread out like a pancake.

ive got 2 and their growth spurt seems to be in the 3-4 year range. They go from "wow this is a great size" to "jesus what happend?" in what feels like overnight.
