Here are some weights of the few adults in my collection

Female 2100 grams, gravid, 6 years old, CB

Female 2200 grams, medium body weight, 5 years old, CB

Female 1600 grams, medium body weight, older adult, CB

Female 700 grams, fat dinky bloodline, 4 years old, CB

Male 800 grams, lean, after off food from breeding, 7 years old, CB

Male 900 grams, older adult, CB

Male 500 grams, est. 3 year old wild caught

Keep in mind a 1000 gram obese snake is much different than a 1000 gram lean snake. The lean snake has greater potential for weight gain.
