To tell you the truth. I pretty much expect a weight gain of a little less than 100 grams per month.

There is always that one or two finicky eaters, but it is not uncommon for my one year old sub adults to weight 1000 grams.

And don't even get me started on how much my boas grow in a year.

I've been involved with animals of all sorts for about 50 years. I learned many years ago that baby animals are genetically engineered to grow quickly. So who ever came up with this idea of slow growing your snakes is beyond me.

Just my $.02.
