Ther are often people posting that they are concerned that their snake is small for its age. I my self have done so in the past. And you often have people saying that their adult corns are 4 1/2 - 5ft plus in length and weigh 800g plus.
Now this has got me wondering if there are many small ADULT corns owned by people on this forum? What are some of the lengths and weights of your smallest adults?

Connie is at least 5 years old although her real age is unknown as she was aquired by my friend as a rescue. She is about 3 1/2 feet last time she was measured and weighs 556g, although she has had a rapid weight gain in the last couple of months which makes me thinks she is going to lay a clutch of eggs again.
Noisy was sold to me as a CB10 but I have good reason to believe that he is a CB07. He is about 3 1/2 ft long and weighs only 214g although he is a finicky feeder.
My smallest adult is my new amel stripe who was sold to me as CB08 but only 2ft 3in and 53g at first weighing. But she is eating and pooping fine so I have no concerns about her health.

I only have one adult. Hes just over 5 foot poss 5 and half and over 800G. Hes currently on a diet of 1 large mouse a fortnight though. (I personally dont think he looks overweight, but if you go by "the rules" so to speak, he is. So if its gonna be better for him to try and loose some then I will try. ALthough hes been on this diet for the last 4 months with regular excercise and hes still putting the G on! So Im contemplating 1 large every 3 weeks)

EDIT: Forgot to say hes estimated at 5 yrs old, but hes my rescue and the old owner didnt really have much of a clue...

Char is 11/12 years old and she's 3ft8 to 3ft6 I think and she weighs about 350g, I'm guessing the stunted growth is due on my part co-habbing years ago and her laying eggs.



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3

Its nice to hear about the smaller corns instead of the larger corns. Anyone else with smaller adult corns?
