I have some questions for you all. How do I know if my snake is just right (I don't think she is skinny) or getting too fat?
She is a Pacific Gopher. I don't know what is her age for sure, but I think around 6-8 months old. she is about 18-20" long, her diameter at the widest point is 5/8", with a much slender neck area (aroun 5/16"). She eats every 4-5 days. She used to eat fuzzy mouse, now she eats pinky rat. After she swallowed her food, she did not have a nice lump, but just a little more bulk around the belly from her food (I gave her the smaller rat pinky). She has a dent along at the side of her belly (is this normal?) Sometimes I think she is getting to fat but yet I tend to wonder if the dent along the side of her body means she did not eat enough...
She NEVER refused any food and sometime I even think she would like to eat more LOL... I like the way she bulked up in the middle (that's why I like BP
)but doesn't want her to be too fat! Any help would be great!

PS: how often should she shed?
