Couple questions for all you Dumerils keepers...



#1 Exactly HOW BIG can Dumerils get? I see pics in here of specimens that look to be 5-6'long...but then you look in the classifieds and people are selling sub-adults and adults that look no more than 2-3'? I know they keep growing for most of their lives, but is there a length at which most typically tend to slow down?



#2 I have a cage thats 4'X3'X5', think that'd be large enough for a hatchling for a little while? Should I plan on devoting a room to it as it matures?



#3 can ya'll post some more pictures of your Dumerils, and if you have any, pictures of yourselves with you're pets so as to get a good size comparison?



I've kept lots of herps, from Pythons to Tegus to Iguanas and wanna test the waters with a Dumerils. Am I aiming for failure? Should I just start with an Ackie and be content till I know monitors? Any help would be awsome
