[QUOTE="Enn49, post: 227747, member: 3458"] I've only ever seen one obese snake in all the years I've kept them and that was a Cali king. I bought a vivarium from a lady off eBay and when we went to collect it she told me the snake came with it. He was a good 4' in a 24 x15" vivarium and when I asked her about his feeding she said he ate a large mouse weekly but she felt guilty so she gave him small mice almost every day. He was the only snake I ever saw with a double chin. Poor lad could barely lift his head up, never mind climb the branch I'd put in his new 4' vivarium. 6 months later after feeding him a medium mouse every 10 days and giving him plenty exercise he was able to climb and enjoy his life again.
