Hi, I have 5 normal ball pythons starting to hatch and was wondering how many grams they should weigh? Thanks

Most hatchlings are 10-15 inches long when born, and most seem to be somewhere between 60 and 100 grams. I'm not an authority on hatchling weight or length, this is just a rough estimate of what I have seen in my personal breedings. And you will occasionally have chunky hatchlings, as well as some tiny hatchlings
