    50 grams????

    I recently bought a bp from a local breeder it was the runt of the clutch and it should be around a month to a month and a half old, is this normal? I also have another snake from the same clutch that is around 130 g's.

    That's not all that small if it was the runt. I had one hatch out at 25g this year. It will catch up to the other before you know it.

    That sounds ok. One may be sufficient depending on how big they are.
