I'll ask around for you because I'm not sure myself.

He doesn't look that underweight though- he's a nice round shape. I would only worry if his skin was sagging a little.

Very nice boa! In a way I'm looking forward to my wee girl getting to that size, but she's cute while she's small. I'm not an expert but he doesn't look underweight to me either.

The best-looking boas I've seen have been lean and muscular, it's not good for them to get too much weight on.

You should be alright if you are used to Royals - they are just a world of worry those are. Boas are much simpler. They eat!

You're not wrong, Feather's eaten everything she's been offered since we got her in June. Even when she's about to shed she still wants her dinner!

I really don't know how Royals survive in the wild. Any creature that doesn't like food is really doomed for extinction you would think It goes against all the rules of nature to not like your grub
