Is my garter fat?

[GarterGreen]

For about a month and a half I was feeding my snake a pinkie about 1 every five days--so more then just once a week. I hadn't been handling him since he is wild caught and I didn't want to stress him out.

I took him out last night to do a complete breakdown of his enclosure and noticed he's really chunky. I think I'm going to take him out at least once a week and slow down feeding. What do you guys think?

looks like a female to me

She's a good looking female. 1 pinky every 5 days is not a problem.

Probably just very healthy.

Female!? Really? I always assumed the smaller size meant male? Are there any pictures I can send that will make the designation more sure?

Sounds like our post was educational and helpful.

Was she wild caught or captive bred?

[GarterGreen]

I caught her as a baby.
