whenever i work out my triceps, they are incredibly sore the next day...but my biceps are almost never sore after working out. (i do the same amount of exercise for both)

there are many factors as to why a certain body part may or may not get sore. do not judge a training routine or program by the amount of soreness that is produced. training should be judged by progress in strength/endurance and or muscle mass over an extended period of time

well, one thing that could cause what you describe is that if your training both biceps and triceps with equal amounts of weight, the biceps may be getting stronger than they should be, in comparison to your triceps, and wont feel as sore as a result.
you should try and do less work with biceps than your triceps, only because the triceps are 1/3 bigger than biceps and need more work.
It could also depend on how effective your exercises are. Try looking up some new ones to shock your muscles into new growth at a bodybuilding website.
