hey i have a corn and i have noo idea how old he is, does anyone have a size to age range for me to have a rough estimate
thanks!
 
Can you tell how old a human is by how tall they are or how much they weigh? Same way with animals. They all grow at different rates, depending on numerous factors.
 
Well, my hatchlings are about 4-5 months old and weigh in at 9 grams (the smallest) and almost 20 grams (largest), 12 inches to 16 inches. I have a yearling that weighs 68 grams and is approximately 2 feet. I also have another yearling that is only 22 grams and maybe 14 inches. So, as you can see, age isn't always a determining factor. Growth is very dependent on how much/often a snake is fed. :}

Also genetics - two parents that are on the small side will probably produce smaller than average offspring.
