How big is Tiki?

[Silt]

I was just wondering if anybody would be able to help me out with guessing the approximate weight of my corn (I have yet to purchase a weigh scale... it's on my list of things-to-do), and how he compares to other corns his age. Tiki is a late '06 baby (currently 8 months old). He measures 24.5" (just over two feet) and is eating 1-2 large fuzzies once a week. In about a month or so, he should be ready for hoppers.

Here's a shot of Tiki taken last month:

So, any guesses on his weight? How does he compare to other late '06 corns? :shrugs:

Thanks!

Sorry Lisa, I'm not sure that's possible. If I was given your photo, age and height, I couldn't guess your weight! Best wait until those scales arrive for an accurate idea.

Looks good for an 8 month old though!

Looks about the size of Mr. Icky. Maybe 70 grams?

Yea exactly what i would say. 65-80 grams! If he is around the 70 gram mark he will be fine for hoppers now i would say! Check out The Munson Plan,its awesome.

Pretty snake by the way

That would be my guess, too- he looks like Choco's size- so I was going to say 70g, but I just looked at my records, and Choco is 90g. I have a pic you can compare to, though.

Choco, 90g:

I definitely think he looks less than 90. Maybe I can catch a pic of Inez tonight on a DVD (she'll really love that- NOT!) she's nearing 60g.

Apologies, :-offtopic
I dont have them on dvd anymore (a friend accidentally/on purpose forgot to give them back and now lives in Australia!) and had the urge to watch them so rented them both a few weeks ago. Watched them back to back witha few cold beers, excellent :grin01:

I was going to guess 100g but then remembered that not everyones hands are as big as mine so the scale is probably way off.
that in minde I'd guess 60-80 grams.

I wonder how Jim's hands compare in size to say, Dean's? :sidestep:

What do we win if we get it right?

lol, mine are huge. This is a 6 foot corn in one of my monsters. I can't comment on Deans hands though. Im sure he will straighten you out in a minute Nanci :grin01:

I feel like living dangerously today! The smoke must be making me cranky. My hands cannot be photographed until the snakes are done being wormed- I've given up getting my nails done to pay for that...

Nanci

 

[Jimmus]
