I have 1 out of the egg from a 9 egg clutch. I cut the eggs on day 53 and the runt left its egg today (day 55). I can tell the runt is smaller than the others, but I can't tell how much smaller, because the rest aren't out of the egg yet. The runt weighs 30 grams. Is This a really small one? What is an average weight for a fresh hatched neonate?

Here she is at hatching.
Half the size of the rest of the clutch but she eats and sheds (and tries to bite me 
) just like a normal baby BP.

That's funny....my little girl is the only one out of 9 that has taken a shot at me. She's a little snake with big attitude!!
