Exactly  So when people try to judge age by size with reptiles it goes to show how difficult it really is
One snake has fed once, the other many times BOTH are April 06 CF babies. And both were EXACTLY the same size 19 days ago.

Certainly some size difference..found that with my bloods..the blacks were great feeders from the start whereas the reds were a right pain to get feeding consistently and the size difference was unbelieveable.

Being 2 different species helps aswell 
Scott, what are the weights of the 2 royals? I'm interested to know how much weight it has gained in the last 19 days.

Smaller one is around the 70g mark, the other 170g (from memory).
The bigger was due a 'clear out' so it's weight on empty will obviously be a lot less. I shall work out some averages after the weekend.
