Size difference between Male and Female kings.

Bianca Dec 21, 2003 07:17 PM

If you have a healthy F and healthy male both eating same litter.Will the female always be longer than the male even as they get old?
I am just curious because it seems to me the biggest kings posted here always females.

Especially in Eastern and Florida Kingsnakes. In Cal Kings they seem to be about the same, though the biggest Cal Kings I have seen were females.

Thanks

Although I have no idea what "normal" is, I do know that my female Cal king is much bigger than my male. They are supposed to be about the same age, or so I was told. But she has a few inches on him, and a little in girth too.
