    Re: weighing in

    I am not huge on weighing my adult snakes, especially now with them paired up and breeding. I like to weigh the youngsters that are still growing about once a month or maybe a little more often. I keep records on them to track their growth. I like to weigh the bigger females to theorize if their breedings have taken, but I usually go more by feel and appearance for that.

    Re: weighing in

    I try to get all mine done once a month at the beginning. Good way to gauge their progress.

    I do the young ones after every shed. I don't check the adults very often as long as there feeding steady.
