He will fill out when he stops growing. But he's still just a baby.

But what do you feed him and how often? That can have a lot of influence on their size too

Mine is around 18 months and only around 60cm so don't worry. I've been feeding it on weiner mice but for the first time last night gave it a full adult mouse. Wasn't sure if he would be able to get it down but he did!

Mine is a year old and 60cm long. Mine is quite slender, but she looks neither under- nor overweight.

My spotty eats fuzzy rats. Yours could probably handle them too.
