pretty burms, and welcome to redtailboa.net!!!!! however, your right. the one snake doesnt look too well. i would advise seperating the two. even if the one tags ya, its not too bad..lol. getting bit by a bird hurts worse, trust me. i would give him a good soak, and clean up his tank a bit. i know its not your snake, but im sure your aunt wouldnt mind some friendly advice make sure he has a water bowl big enough to get his whole body into, if he wants to soak himself it will help the shedding process. make sure he/she has a hiding place as well, somewhere that he can go to feel safe, that will help a great deal with the stress. a happy snake, is a healthy snake. and ofcourse he needs heat, as well. you are going to want to make sure his tempetures are correct as well, as this has a role in the shedding process.

as for the albino burm your wife is holding, she is pretty, but, they are very sensitive to light, you wont want to take him/her outside during the day.

how much and often to you get to feed them? are they good feeders? well, good luck with them, and i wish you the best.

if you have any questions or concerns, we are all here to help, dont hesitate to ask

well right now it is really cold outside the albino was only outside for 5 mins to take the pic. Lightning (the albino) eats 2 full grown rats a week. The big girl (sweet thing) who by the way is pregnated (145 Lbs) eats a rab. every 2 to 3 weeks. The one that dosent look 2 hot she can eat like 5 full grown rats and she only gets longer no fatter. the other eats 1 rat a week

now a question? what will make the one grow fatter instead of longer???

Really cold? In the south? Naw, there's no such thing. The albino looks like it could probably handle a small rabbit. As for the 5 rats per feeding, that's a bit much. I can't tell the size of that one, but perhaps it could take larger rats or a maybe even a small rabbit.

not really cold like in the 40's and 50's i'm saying it has eaten that many 1 time it eats 2 rats it's not really big and yes the albino has eaten a rabit b4 i just rather feed him 2 rats a week

[savannah_babe]

well, snakes really cant digest that much food so quick, they are supposed to go by thier girth size in prey items. other wise, thats power feeding, and its not healthy for a snake. good luck with em though..

[BurmeseMike]

no she don't eat that much my aunt fed her till she wouldn't eat any more to see if she would get bigger but it only got longer but anyways she only eats 1 or 2 a week now
