I know females get bigger than males do, but who puts on weight faaster. I keep records of all my snakes feeding and noticed my males tend to weigh more after about 7-10 months than my females even though they've eaten less. I'll feed my females every 5-7 days and my males every 8-10. Has anyone else noticed this? I think I just want my females to put the weight on more and they're doing this to piss me off. They're probably hitting the tread mill after I go to sleep. ARGHHHHHHH!!!

Males mature faster and breed younger, It takes longer for a female to mature to a fatter girth for breeding. A male snake will be smaller in the outcome so it can start filling out quicker where as a female grows longer then fills out, that is why most people dont breed till 3 years of age.
