    Age and Weight?
    Ok, I know that some snakes will grow faster than others and all that, BUT does anyone have a general age to weight norm?

    I have a male normal that I got as a baby in February and he weighs 594g as of today and that's with him missing his meal last Friday. I'm seeing ads on KS for '08's that weigh under 500g. Does this mean my guy is a fatty? He's only missed 3 meals since I've had him and he eats appropriately sized food every Friday. He's already eating big smalls or smallish medium rats.

    The ones you are seeing for sale are likely fed a conservative diet. Once a week and not larger meals. Breeders don't want to spend more on feeding and/or have to move them out of hatchling tubs.

    For my 2 males that I got in February they are both around the same weight as yours.
