all going to depend on how well the particular snake eats. Some that eat well and consistently will grow pretty fast, while others may be pickier and inconsistent, and won' grow as fast as they might have the potential to. I think breeding generally goes by weight, I'm sure someone else can tell you what weight would be appropriate, but again that would be dependent on his feeding habits.
