    How much does your adult male(s) BP weigh and how long is he (are they)?

    I know every snake is different but I am just curious as I just weighed my boy and he is 1301 grams. It will go down a bit once he poops but I was wondering what other people's adult male BPs weigh?

    Dante had gone through a really long fast last year, longest he ever did in his life. I just now got him back on a feeding schedule I like and will now reduce him down to ever 2 weeks just to maintain around this weight give or take a few hundred grams.

    So what I am wondering is not only how heavy are your boys but how long are they too? Dante is, after using a string to finally measure, 48 3/4 inches long. For curiosity sake how old are they too.

    For me it took my husband holding one end on Dante's tail and me running it along him until I got to the head. It was the only way I could think of getting him measured.

    I wound up getting an adult former-breeder male not long ago. I'm not 100% sure how old he is; only that the breeder was selling a few babies of his while we were there.

    Obito is a spider morph and I would guess at least 2 or 3 years old, but could easily be older. He has shed for us twice since we got him in October (he was in blue when we got him), but I'm not sure if that's much of an indicator of age.
    Last I measured him, he weighed 1420g and is about 48.5 inches according to the serpwidget site with a picture of him and a ruler.

    Re: How much does your adult male(s) BP weigh and how long is he (are they)?

    I just noticed that someone already mentioned this app... so now two of us like it. The hyperlink is below...

    I'm not sure where I found this app (probably somewhere on BP.NET). Nonetheless, it does a pretty good job of measuring the length of snakes that just don't want to cooperate and stretch out alongside a tape measure.
