Here's my 77" male Eastern "Big John". Thought he was going to kick the bucket this year, but he changed his mind started eating again and is doing great (for an old snake). He's at least 12-15 years old I believe (been passed around too many people to accurately assess his age). I have two other younger easterns that are from 5 to 5.5 foot. The 5.5 footer is a Wild caught and its' head is even bigger than Big Johns'!!!
First pic is wife holding Big John. Second pic is the Wild caught male. He is almost a foot shorter than Big John, but has a bigger head and a nice WIDE, powerful, rat crushing body!
