How are you training them currently? Just asking because the problem for some people who train exclusively with the barbell is that there is always the possibility that their stronger side may tend to take on a greater percentage of the weight during the lift, resulting in uneven growth if done over a period of time. If you're not already doing so you may want to try using a method which allows you to work each side independently, such as db's or single arm cable shrugs, and try your best to do work both sides as evenly as possible.

Try doing one arm dumbbell shrugs using the same weight for both arms. This way you can ensure that you are working each trap equally.
Like a previous poster stated, the symmetry is a lot to do with genetics, so do not worry about this too much, as you get bigger you will find that the imbalance will probably work itself out. Good luck."If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them"
