weight question!!

cmac107 Jun 10, 2010 08:06 PM

hey everyone. i have 3 09 balls. and im wanting to know if their weights are normal? all of the snakes were hatched in july of 09. i have a male pastel and he is at 625 grams. next a male normal he is at 515 grams. lastly a female pastel at 560 grams. i jut want to make sure they are not overweight/underweight for their ages. i feed them one,i would call it a medium sized rat per week. i know the rat is not too big because they suck them down with no prob.

thanks for the input!!

Those wts sound about Right, I just like my Females to be around 700 to 900 grams around a Year old. It doesn't always happen though,Ive had some that took 3 yrs to get them to 900 gr.

So Yep, Your rite in that range Mac. Get that female eating more or bigger meals and She'll shoot out there.
