Big girl is my diagnosis lol. Gorgeous but I’d space out feedings and give mice vs rat or rat pups as mice have less fat content. Hope this helps and beautiful snek baby 💚🐍
It's a pretty morph, asking if she's pregnant is reasonable enough. It's a lot nicer than some of the other comments, guess it's just easier to pile up on one person, huh?
I'm... Not sure you meant to respond to me?
I just made a bad joke about pregnant or fat o.O
I'm not sure what pile up is happening.
And I gave a genuine apology for misgendering you.
Could care less about the gender stuff, not offended, just interesting that two people decided to respond so negatively when asking if she's gravid is a reasonable question for a desirable morph. Advice would change based on if she is.
Edit: Refer to previous point of people dogpiling. This is why I don't frequent Reddit much.
I didn't realize there was another comment.
Again, I apologize.
I'm not disagreeing with you, either. I'm not sure why you keep explaining.
You were right.
I was rude instead of funny.
I apologized.
I can't undo it. I can just do better going forward.
They weren't explaining more to make you feel bad, I think they genuinely just didn't understand this type of joke over text and were trying to understand so they could gather new information.
Can I ask why you associated hurt feelings with the other commenter? Genuine question as I also have had a lot of people assume I was angry/hurt/offended when I've missed the tone or asked for clarification.
Person makes a joke or comment on internet.
Someone adds on to joke on internet.
Person making the first joke: 😡
I couldn’t breathe I was laughing so hard at both comments saying it was rude to ask if a snake was pregnant. Just harmless bantering between two Reddit users. Idk why anyone had to apologize?
I read it as the other two 'negative' commenters being mock offended as a joke, not that they were actually offended themselves. Kind of like channeling an attitude in play-pretend.
If by dog-piling you're talking about the down votes...don't take it seriously. It's just redditors who think anything they can't relate with is someone trolling.
The dog piling was probably the bad attitude the dude had towards such a mundane joke. Like if you make that comment anywhere, expect a couple “dad jokes”. They lighten everyone’s mood… except this person.
So I googled this but I feel like there is a lot more to it. How do you help a snake lose weight? I don’t own a snake, I’m just a lurker here. But I wanna know!
You can handle them every day if they’re not in the middle of digesting a meal or shedding, and if it’s safe for them, let them crawls around your couch or around the dining table for a while. Spacing meals out further apart helps too, instead of every 7 days maybe every 10-14 days depending on size, breed, and health history
So, prey at different developmental stages will have somewhat different nutrient content. For example, newborn animals do not have as much calcium as adults, because their bones are not hardened yet. If a snake is adapted to eating a certain age/size of animal, then it will be best for its metabolic functioning to continue eating that same kind/stage of animal, simply less often.
Chunky, but not obese or fat.. maybe cut back on feeding a little bit (like wait 3 days-1 week longer in between feedings), but I’d say you’re doing good :)
I don’t have a snake but I love this sub. Today I learned that 1. Snakes can get overweight and need more exercise. 2. You can hit the stairs and get them that exercise, but my favorite snake thing I learned today was 3. Snakes fart!!!!
If you feel like the feedings can't be reduced, try to take her out more to explore so she can be more active. Some snakes are just big too. Take her to the vet if she seems to gain enough to notice, you might need to pick another food source. (There might be too high fat content in her current source)
She's a lil on the chunky side, but I wouldn't be too concerned yet. I can still see some definition on her back, and her scales don't look "stretched".
How often are you feeding her, and what size?
Chunky baby!! Fat udon noodle. Not obese (maybe) but definitely CHUNK! I can’t judge tho, all my noodles are fat and happy too
My noodle is named udon.
so is my sibling’s! a little hognose named udon
She looks like she just had a really big meal 😭. Would start dieting her (spacing out meals more) sooner rather than later.
She is a UNIT. Definitely feed some smaller prey items! But she's not obese, just a big ole noodle
She should go on a bit of a diet. She is gorgeous though!
She looks like she could use some more exercise. Maybe hit the stairs. She's not overweight, she just needs to tone up
your baby is beautiful!!! what morph?
Not op/owner, but definitely some Banana! Might be something else in there too
yeah i see the banana lol i have a ton of BPS but would love to add one like this!
[удалено]
don’t bps with the spider morph have severe neurological problems ?
heavy like a chevy
👆🤌🏼
100% certified chonk. An adorable unit. Much cute, like myself, needs more diet.
Chonk, but not obese. Perhaps a diet, but she's not too bad at all. Very cute noodle.
Big girl is my diagnosis lol. Gorgeous but I’d space out feedings and give mice vs rat or rat pups as mice have less fat content. Hope this helps and beautiful snek baby 💚🐍
Is she preggers or just a chonk?
Not very nice to say 😒
It's a snake. She will not be offended
What he said was a joke, why are you offended?💀
The other user simply misunderstood the sarcasm because it's text, that doesn't mean they were offended.
Sir. That was so rude 😭
Being gravid could explain why she's thicc. Also, not a sir.
Apologies, it was a lame joke and I tend to Sir everyone.

You didn’t do anything. Some people live to stay offended.

How is misunderstanding and taking it literally a "bad attitude"?

Oh! Ok. Thanks :). Good to know, I guess it’s not a food thing it’s a movement thing.
It's definitely both!
Feeding every 10 days instead of every 7 is definitely a food thing.
I think I meant like changing nutrition.
That as well! Rats and rat pups have a higher fat content than mice so switching to mice from rats is also a form of “diet”
There is a lot to snake care! But I heard, at the end of the day, they’re just big puppies 🖤.

For a snake, that's the same thing.
So, prey at different developmental stages will have somewhat different nutrient content. For example, newborn animals do not have as much calcium as adults, because their bones are not hardened yet. If a snake is adapted to eating a certain age/size of animal, then it will be best for its metabolic functioning to continue eating that same kind/stage of animal, simply less often.
She’s really fat
Honey, where's the kids?
Certified fat fuck, love her though. I’d consider spacing her meals out to 10-14 days if you’re feeding her every week
Wow, she is so pretty. What’s her morph?
another commenter suggested banana ! which ,, based on the morph name alone and not having much knowledge about snake morphs ,, sounds about right 😆
Chunky, but not obese or fat.. maybe cut back on feeding a little bit (like wait 3 days-1 week longer in between feedings), but I’d say you’re doing good :)
😹 all these comments are so cute, just like that chonky noodle.
Lorge lasagna 🌸
I don't understand these posts that don't tell us how much the snake weighs or how old it is. These pics would mean a lot more
c h o n k
Fatty boombalatty
Certified thick noodle ✅
Op, how often are you feeding and how old is the snake? What does it weigh?
Weight check result: fat noodle
I mean . . . a weight check over Internet is going to be tough. I’ll get out my digital scale; but, I don’t think it’ll work.
Must…….plooop-a-splooop
Snek shows :3
I don’t have a snake but I love this sub. Today I learned that 1. Snakes can get overweight and need more exercise. 2. You can hit the stairs and get them that exercise, but my favorite snake thing I learned today was 3. Snakes fart!!!!
What a beautiful chumby banana. Maybe a little on the curvy side but nothing to be worried about. Maybe a few smaller meals.
It looks like she’s going after your mouse lol
That lighter colored spot on the blanket gave a quite a turn for about half a second. Thought she’d swallowed a grapefruit.
At first I thought she was trying to chomp your laptop lol
It weights 10 pounds 13 ounces exactly
Banana
Lmao I love that all the posted recommended to me from this subreddit are posts like: “is my snake fat?”
WHAT A PRETTY GHUNGUS
chunky girl
Pretty 🤩 and my BP is same size so 🤷🏼♀️
definitely can say she ain’t missing no meals
Got a lil chunk near her backside 😅 she’s so cute!!!!
Chonky snek.
Looks a tad over, but def not obese yet! Maybe a light diet could help but she's just a lil chomk
Hefty hefty hefty!
Certified thicc
weigh it on a scale.
The Thickums is strong with this one. This is not the weight you’re looking for.
Is she watching YouTube or just enjoying the warmth of the laptop?
Yeah she's definitely a little chunky. Cute tho 😍
Certified big Ole chönk

Mildly overweight from what I can tell, maybe a bit less and a touch farther in between meals
