I weighed mine today. Dexter was 110g and Belle is 807g!

Belle was 665 on February 23. Either she's had a big spring already or our scale sucks!

I had a 5'3" male brooksi that was 1.25 kg (pic below).

Hmmm...I don't know why I mix "feet" with kilograms, hahahahaha. Maybe because I don't have a metric ruler but do have a metric scale.
Oh well, 63" times 2.54. anyone......

hohoho

My two female 06 S. GA easterns both weighed slightly over 600 gms before they became gravid.

The Avalanche has already started-it is too late for the pebbles to vote....

According to the scale at the vet's, Zorro weighs 634 grams (assuming I recall correctly).

Unfortunatley this girl passed away this winter. She was 15 years old and weighed in at a little under 2000 grams....yes 2000. Right around 4 lbs. She was a sweetheart of a snake and is greatly missed.

She was beautiful as well.... Well it seems safe to say she had a better than average life w/ you! Sorry you lost her...

I'm sorry too. She was a great snake.

thanks

sorry Brandon, she was really beautiful.

If you told me I could guarantee 15 years out of Belle I would take it. I hope I can take good enough care of mine for them to live that long. (hell, I hope I can take good enough care of myself to last that long!)

At 2000 grams, how long was she? Do you have pictures of you holding her?

Eddie, I would say she was 60-65 inches give or take. She was a big girl and layed large clutches of very large eggs. She averaged 20 eggs in a clutch and the eggs were around the size of a small chicken egg.....and not a banty chicken.

I had two others that actually beat her in size. They were both brooksi that I got from Daveb several years ago. The female threw 25 eggs on her last clutch and was a bit larger than the female in my previous post. The male was not as girthy, but had a little bit more length. Here's the female. I wish I had a better camera back then. As Dave says, this would make a great poster. Too bad the resolution is too low.

Thanks
