Although there are far more experienced keepers then me, they sound a little on the small side. As far as the 30" one the length is ok, but the weight sounds thin. The 24" just sounds a bit small all around.

What are you feeding them and how often?

I just weighed a few of my 06 hondos yesterday while cleaning and they were

06 male extreme 221 grams
06 female amelanistic 233 grams
06 female hypo 179 grams

I didn't measure their length but all are at least 30" long.

What are you feeding yours and how often?

the female eats hoppers weekly sometimes two, per her length seems fullbodied, the male eats large fuzzies weekly, but was always on the small side.

its possible the scale i used is off i borrowed from someone who had it laying around in his garage.

but thanks for the info on length and weight.
