Just curious, i know a few of you out there have 2008 juvies. Ever weighed them?
I moved 2 of my girls out of 12qt tubs and into more adequate (and attactive) housing today and weighed them in the process. 140g and 141g (sisters) were the weights.

Damon,

I just moved some 08's up as well. Mine were near yours but one that fed before its first shed weighs 207 gms. I am not a heavy feeder, i feed young GTPs every 7-10 days and meals that are not much larger than the circumference of the snake. This particular one must have some serious growth hormone going on LOL!!

Thanks Marc. Good to know they are in range. I guess they just seemed small since I hadn't grown any up in a few years. I have them on a 5 day routine that averages out to 7 days by the time I actually get them fed. Like yours, they are eating meals that are not to large in size.

My Biak OC's are just at 10 months old and the largest is 135 grams, with the smallest at 92 grams. They are fed weekly on appropriate sized meals. Gotta love those big Biaks......:cheers:
