    I am not an expert.

    Nevertheless, are you purchasing this animal sight unseen? Do you at least have access to good current photos? I would think a careful inspection of the blood would tell you much more than a weight. It is my understanding that the bloods should look a bit chunky, but not obese.

    VPI's website has dozens of photos of good looking bloods, many with captions about the snake pictured. You might be able to glean the information from there.

    The weights can vary greatly depending on the person's feeding schedule. You can grow them up fast, but just because they aren't growing quickly, it doesn't mean they aren't healthy. I'd agree on getting a photo. Also, do you know what it's currently eating and how often it's fed?

    All depends how much you feed it how well it eats. I have one male that is a mouser he's a 2012 he might go 4 pounds but probably closer to 3 I have 20+ lb female girls the same age. I have a sib of his that's 15 lbs
