I'm actually kind of wondering what her max size will be. She's on 6-8 lb rabbits right now and she's an early 09 (like Feb or March?) so she's 2.5 years old or so. She did go off feed during the winter for a bit but since April has been an eating, shedding and pooping machine-4 sheds since april :crazy: It's like she's a hatchling again. She's put on probably a good foot or two in length and I don't know how much weight. The only problem is she seems hungry ALL THE DAMN TIME.

I know other large snakes that I've worked seemed to take a while to hit full size--my Argentine boa wasn't full grown till probably 6 years old despite good feeding. I've got an older retic (early 08) that isn't *too* much bigger than, but it's a male too and they do seem to stay smaller. I'll see I guess.
