I need to know the size of a fully grown bali retic. Male and female sizes? Slso are they on the more aggressive side? I have heard the have a very defensive nature.....Joe

i have a 1.2 bali group i recently put together. From what i've seen if you work with them they can become even ball python calm. My male is 6yrs old and 10.4ft You won't find a calmer snake! He was feed less when he was younger to keep him smaller which worked for sure. He should have another 2-3ft on him. My females are both small. Not sure of their age but they won't go till next year. Notah Howe has a 12ft female, i know of someone that sold a pair the female being 14-16ft, and i've even heard of a 20ft bali. No one really knows the true size of these amazing yellow heads. All of mine are c.b.b. not imports so I should have a good idea of how big the c.b.b. female bali's get. Kind of hard to get an average size of all bali's with 2 females lol but hey it will be as good as i can get. Never go by the size of w.c. as the difference has been shown and c.b.b. seem to get bigger in captivity because of the avaiablity of food. If you need any other info feel free to e-mail me at Rear_Fanged@hotmail.com or give me a call (954) 752-6105 and i'd be more then happy to help you out.

The bigger of my two females is fiesty and will bite. The smaller would rather just try and slide away and doesn't bite. We will see when they settle in,
