 Question about the Numbers-1.0-1.1

I have seen on a few Herp sites when people mention their collection they state it in this way; 1.0 Black Rat; 1.1 Texas Rat; Etc...
What do the numbers mean? Age? I know you can’t have 1 tenth of a snake. LOL I’m not really poking fun, it just looks wierd to me, being a newb and all. Fred

It’s the ratio of males to females. Males are first. 1.3 means 1 male and three females.
