Hi ok heres the weights for my 08 snakes but havent been weighed in 2 weeks so will be slightly heavier( last month they gained 8g each)

Amel july 08 29g Female
Anery june 08 40g Male
Normal july 08 24g Female ( was tiny when i got her)

Id be interested in other peoples 08 weights so i can make sure they are growing well enough and also what would be average weight gain a month for 08 corn snakes
