    Oh boy! I am so glad I asked. Will definitely be keeping her low stress and building up her body weight. If she's really that old how much should she weigh?

    There is really no set target when it comes to weight and I would rather go with overall shape than weight, there is a lot coming into the weight. (weight out of the egg, how fast the animal was started, prey size, feeding frequency, fast etc)

    I do not recommend trying to compare your snake weight vs others especially since in this case your snake was underfed getting preys that are usually fed to colubrids.

    Usually they hatch at 60/70 grams but can also hatch out much bigger (90 grams or so) so as you can see even out of the egg it is variable.

    So long you get on track with proper feeding and you snake looks good that is all that will matter.
