>>How long will a Black Rat Snake get? That depends on a lot of things. Snakes don't stop growing. As they get older, they get longer. They just start to grow more slowly. How well they are fed has something to do with it. There is also genetic potential. It also has a lot to do with the genes.

>>But snakes in many ways are like people. Some people are very tall while others are short, but there is such a thing as average height for a man or woman.

>>

>>Now apply that concept to your snakes. The longest Black Rat found was 101 inches (8.4 ft.). They seem to average between 4 and six feet.

>>

>>Just in case you want to know, I have five Black Rats at this time (the legal limit in my state).

Nice looking BR. It has a nice deep dark color. Is it male or female? How old is it? Is it captive born or wild caught.
