I think the fact that this Ball Python is very overweight, or gravid gives it more of a cramped looking affect. It's just my opinion, but it's tail looks so tiny for it's extremely fat body. I know Balls are a bit thick, but this girl is starting to look like a Blood or something. I wasn't gonna post anything, but this pic of this snake really annoys me. I'm saying this because Boaphile sells a brand new rack they just came out with, that is supposed to house adult BP's and I think the dimensions are similar, maybe slightly bigger by a few inches. No offense to your snake or you, because I know you're trying to prove a point, but that's obviously not the typical size for an adult BP. When it comes down to it, it depends on the individual snake.
