Typically I believe it's the females who grow larger faster. Growth depends on other things things besides just food intake. Unless you weighed the hoppers every week it's possible he received bigger meals. It's also possible it's age or genetic related. Since you brought up about keeping them in the same enclosure I will say in my opinion that could play a role in the current growth rates too. I believe one of the problems with keeping boa's together is even though they aren't fighting they may be competing over areas. The little things are a bigger deal then I think most people realize. Hot & cool spots assist with digestion, stress caused from privacy or another snake can be another factor.
