Basically are Trinket Snakes slow growers, because i have 2, one was born June 07 and the other July 07. I have had the june one since late last july and i swear he has only grown a inch if that, and the same with the other one, who i have had since last november _________________ Tom

they like 12 to 15 inches, really small, neither of them are very good feeders, i think this may be one of the reasons _________________ Tom

it might take them longer to get to adult size if they are poor feeders. _________________

well i am very happy, because yesterday, both the trinket snakes fed for the second week in a row. They usually only eat every 2 or 3 weeks. And the second piece of good news is that they ate Fluffs!!
and the third piece of good news is that the male, for the first time ever struck fed!! normally i just leave it in there and check a few hours later.
i am so happy _________________ Tom
