Snake Stages??

I was just curious... I see people using terms like hatchling and yearling and such... I was just curious though... Does anyone have like a chart or something that says how old a snake would be and what the "term" is? Like... what classifies a hatchling? And how old are they when they are not hatchlings anymore? What other stages are there?

Thanks in advance!
 
Here's the list, in my personal opinion. Others opinions may differ.

Hatchling: 0-6mos
Juvenile: 6mos-1yr
Yearling: 1yr-2yrs
Sub-Adult: 2yrs-3yrs
Adult: 3yrs+
 
That's funny. I started checking mine to make sure they were of sufficient size to breed, had plenty of 800 or 900 gram specimens, and was thinking to myself 'I can't believe that people breed 300 gram snakes.' They're so teeny.
 
Lol, that would be pretty funny! And 800 or even 900 grams seems huge! Lol. But mine are so tiny right now, lol.
Thanks for all the help!
