Strawbs just weighed in at 72/73g, she's 9 months old, is this pretty average?

i've looked online for 'typical' weights/sizes of milk snakes but found nothing!

Its hard to say what is a "right" weight compared to length, but as long as she is eating well shes probably fine. Its a lot easier to say wether its under or over weight with a pic (from above)

Difficult to say. Sylar is now 2 years old and weighs 225g. I was told that Jasmin was an 07 as well but when I got her she weighed less than 100g but she is now 229g so is growing much quicker than Sylar. They are both about 3' long


1.1.0 Arizona mountain king (Sylar and Claire)
0.1.0 Blotched king ( Jasmin)
1.1.0 Guyana red-tail boa (Hercules and Athena)
1.0.1 children (Alfie and BUMP)
