i was thinking of maybe trying to do a yearly one, so chart for 0-12 months 12-24 etc that way could do it as i line graph to show a continual line for indivitual snake, but just wouldnt be possible to do that on one chart for all snakes as would be to many lines i think. but yeah yearly is possible

Why a name? - how about just the average of all snakes at a certain age.

i.e. the average weight at 2 months, 3 months etc etc.

looking at the weights so far being so widely spread 23,38,76 for 8 month old average being 45!!!, i think an average would just be to inacurate

could you just discount an 'extreme' weight, like for my 2, them being on a breeder/shop maintenance diet will mean their 1st weights with me are particularly low.

I suppose that's the use of an 'average', it will even itself out the more you put into it.

or in Matilda-the-Chavcorn's case....

1.Put on wooly gloves
2.Chase around viv for 10 minutes and finally catch, having removed anything that could possibly be used to hide.
3.Get bitten & swear a lot.
4.Wrestle into pillow case.
5.Push back down into pillow case.
6.Wind BIG elastic band around top of pillow case & contemplate throwing said pillow case and contents into nearest large body of water.
7.Weigh, and place cautiously back into viv.

She is getting calmer......honest .

Couldn't you do a scatter-plot with them and then put a trend-line in? Wouldn't that eliminate the fatties and skinnies and prevent any incorrect averages?

p.s. No I'm not volunteering. I'm quite looking forward to burning my copy of Excel in July when I graduate .

Just weighed stan and hes a huge................

13 grams!

I thought he was about 5 months old but seeing other peoples weights at this age im starting to change my mind.
He must be a couple of months max. He is eating two pinkies very easily though.
Got some great pics from today which i will post 2mo.

Initially yes but, you can adjust the x-axis intercept to give a more realistic result .

If you get 1 rogue result you can adjust the point that the trend-line crosses the x-axis so that the rogue data doesn't adversely affect your average. Kinda like a line of best fit on Excel but you can adjust it to make it do what you want it to.
