    2011 Hatchling Size: Poll
    Hey this is my first year with ball pythons, and most of my snakes are 2011 hatchlings. I was curious the range of how fast different hatchlings grow at, so I wanted to make a poll to get an idea.

    If you have more than one hatchling, it would be most accurate if you based your poll answer on the average size of your 2011 babies. If you entered in the poll, I also wouldnt mind knowing how many hatchlings are in which size category? It definitely doesnt have to be exact numbers, but ball parks so I can get an idea of what typical hatchlings sizes are. Im wondering how big the biggest 2011 girl is right now ?

    Post pictures of the little buggers if you feel inclined to, as well!

    I have a Feb 2011 that is well over 700 grams and a Dec 2011 that is about 160 grams. The average in between that is 250-400 grams for the rest of them.

    This is really dependent on WHEN they were born in 2011, as well as feeding, genetics, etc...

    Mine are in the 200-300 range. I have three, 2011 hold-backs and two others we are selling. Every other year I fed hatchlings on a 5 day schedule and this year I went to 7 days but I'm not doing that anymore. They should be in the 4-500 range by now (or more) with a 5 day feeding schedule.

    Mine average somewhere between 4-500. I have an early(Feburary) 2011 female that is 930 grams, then a few Mar-May babies that are in the 5-700 gram range and some late 2011's that are still under 200 grams.
