diegos_den Aug 03, 2005 02:15 AM

How much does a typical full grown male burm weigh, and how long does it take to get that big? I've looked all over, but all the sites i find just say the maximum weight. any help is greatly appreciated

It just depends on how often you feed and how well of a feeder the snake is. Its not uncommon for males to be poor feeders once they get to a breedable size.
My male is probobly between 10 and 11ft and weighs about 40 pounds.
