    bp growth rate?

    now I know all snakes grow differently, but are there general weight ranges for hatchlings, 1 year olds, 2 year olds, etc?

    What is the youngest female you had to reach breeding weight? How about oldest? How about males?

    Just curious about other people's experiences.

    I got mine in july this year, an '07 male, and he is only 740g or so. He was a little skinny, 500g, when I first got him and he wouldn't eat for a while but now he eats like a champ and is jumping up in weight, but a '07 at 1900g is amazing.
