can someone help me get an estimate of age according to weight

boricua00735

one eyed brown guy
i purchased some corns a while back ive had them for about a month and a half with exception to the hypo blood that i got about 3 weeks ago. lllreptile told me they were all about a month old with exception to the fire and the hypo blood which were about 3 weeks old, according to them. Can some one help me with educated guess at about how old my corns really are according to there weights? I know for sure the butter cant b a hatchling like they said he was. Some staff was extremely knowledgeable others not so much but when it came to age they didnt breed them so they were not sure,

weights are as shown:
"bloodrayne" hypo bloodred female: 7.8g
"hulk" fire male: 9.6g
"frost"lavender female: 10.4g
"ivory"amel male: 12.7g
"ice" snow female: 14.3g
"butters" butter male: 27.7g

ps. also should i be weighing out my pinks and how soon before i move the butter to fuzzies?
 
I'm afraid there isn't an age to weight formula, especially at that age. Some of them grow very rapidly on the same feeding regime which would just be a maintenance diet for others. In your situation I'd accept the ages given by the seller. All you can say is that they're a few weeks or a couple of months old.
 
bitsy is correct. Snakes at those weights were most likely hatched some time this year, but the larger ones may very well be 2011 hatchlings or even more if they've been poor feeders or have regurged a couple of times times.
 
no they are all good feeders only had one prob so far the smallest they hypo bloodred regurged her last meal with me unf:( i do have nutribac coming tomorrow(just in case will be putting it in her water and changing daily and she will be fed again on the 24th just a pinky head with a nutribac coat and take it from there. The fire a couple days ago literally darted from my hand at the pinky while bear-hugging my ring finger and chose not to let go til i put him back in his viv lol
