....typically male jungles fall between 5-7', although I have seen a few males that were several years old and still no more than 4.5', while I've also heard of males reaching 8'. Females are generally a little larger, the largest I know of being 9'. All-in-all you should expect 6' from a male and maybe 7' from a female, but larger ones do appear.

I have a 6 foot female. She is around 3 years old as best as I can figure. Very docile with handling. she is in shedding mode right now. Can't wait till she sheds this time. She is eating f/t large rats.
