September 2023 Platinum Sunfire Female

Husband and I purchased this girl later last year. She was hatched 9/2023. In this pic, my kitchen tiles are 18" tiles, so she's about 6 feet long (a little over...she's currently in a 6x2x2 enclosure). She's got a fabulous personality - very chill and inquisitive. I'm concerned about her size, though. She's from a local pet shop, who got her from a local breeder (hence knowing her hatch date). But we don't know lineage aside from her being platinum sunfire het albino. Given that she'll be 3 in four months, and only a little over 6 feet, I'm wondering if she's stunted and shouldn't be fed a little more (either in frequency or size). She's currently getting M/L rats once a week to 10 days. I don't have any interest in power feeding her but at the same time I want her to be on a healthy schedule. I appreciate input! (She's my only python in a home with 19 other various snakes...western hogs, kings, corns, and 4 varieties of boas).

He just had his first completely clean shed since he was surrendered to me. He’s come a long way since I got him

Haven’t seen it before in platinum Sunfire combo but his head is never that bright. He just shed not long ago and caught him fired up.
