Scrub Comparison Question

Hi,

What, in your experience, gets bigger? The Southern Scrub python or the Bar-Neck Scrub python? Thank you.

Neither are really larger than the other.
The largest recorded barneck was just shy of 16 feet.
And I am aware of 15 foot Southerns and I am sure they too can reach 16 feet.
But both forms average at around 11-13 feet. The largest Barneck we ever had was about 13.5 feet and the largest Southern we ever had was around 13.5 feet as well.
If you'd like more info and pics on these pythons, take a look at the link below.
