I'm trying to get an idea of average weight for adult males.

I only have two adult males 1866 and 1312 empty. The rest are a bunch of juvies and babies between 300 and 700 grams.

1600 grams...he's 3 1/2 yrs old and has never eaten anything but one mouse a week.

I'm not sure how that helps you to determine the "average" weight of anything. Always a fun topic, though.

Well, it's informal but in the years I have been dealing with BPs, I think a good average weight is 1500 grams. But I'm not sure if that's because the emphisis on feeding is more on females. But that is a big BP either way.

.... between CBB and WC? Seems like some of the WC females that come in are huge! Just wondering if there's any coralation (sp?) between size and time in captivity.
