My snakes weight

Hey everyone I got a quick question.
My ball python is around 7 months old and I just weighed him for the first time and he is at 480 grams, I have had him for 5 months and has not missed one meal once a week. Does 480g sound right for a 7 month old ball python ?? He seems pretty healthy but I have seen some pics of peoples and they are super fat or thick. I dont have a current pic of him but ill try to take one.

Mine are around that size too.

That is a good weight for his/her age. some people have their snakes on a 5 day feed schedule, tile they reach 300-400 grams then on a 7 day schedule.

I have a 7 month old who is only around 280gr, every snakes gains at their own pace.
