    How heavy at 6 months? Poll!
    There was a post a few days ago commenting on weights of Ball Pythons at 6 months. I was wondering what others were.

    Hey, mykee, is that a German Shorthaired Pointer nose in your pic?

    I picked 400-450g but it really is extremely variable. It depends on the baby as an individual. Did it eat right after the first shed and every week there after? Was it a slow starter? Was it power fed or under fed? Was it fed really small prey items or larger prey item?

    I have had babies range from about 200-500 grams at the 6 month mark depending on the individual.

    Loonunit; that picture is of my chocolate lab Willow taken six and a bit years ago when she was around two.

    More pics of her and her sister Kayla can be found on my website...

    At 6 months old most of my 09's weighed 400-500 grams.

    I swear I'm not overfeeding mine, but both Vinnie and Julius were around 800g by six months! :oops: My others weighed around 500g at that age, so I guess that's closer to average.

    Oops... just checked my iHerp, and Vinnie was only 500g at six months. But Julius was about 750, so he still qualifies as a PIG! :D

    I don't know what my BP weighed at 6 months, but then again I don't even know how old he is! I just weighed him and he is right at 1200 grams. What does that translate to in snake years? :P
