I agree. but will add temperatures play a huge role too.

This topic has a lot more to it than I first let on. At least to me.

Most breeders can not and do not place each corn in a 75 gallon tank. So, the size of the enclosures somewhat controls the feeding of the captive snakes. So are we slowing breeding down the size of corns in captivity? Granted most corns in the wild will be about the same size as CB, or maybe smaller. But as I posted on the other reply you may have a few corns near a nice endless supply of mice. Compare this to the almost uniform control in CB corns. Most breeders follow very similar guide lines. NOW I'm not saying to power feed a snake in a 200 gallon tank. lol I wanted to get to the idea of uniform cages and uniform feeding is or may be having an effect on the size of corns in captivity.
