Age is just as important as weight, in my opinion. My first piece of advise is to feed the heck out of them. If they eat, feed them. If you are keeping pet Balls, feeding them every few weeks or so is probably ok. If you are going to be breeding them, that feeding schedule probably won't cut it, and you will end up with small clutches and skinny snakes by the time the season is over. Feed them as much as they will eat and see what they look like in December.
